Shunts
Beemet Instruments is one of the leading ammeter shunts manufacturers and exporters in India. Our DC shunts are made in-house by our expert team of engineers and are designed to the highest specifications.
They are manufactured with high-quality Manganin wire. Manganin is the best alloy for DC shunts application with a temperature coefficient of only 10ppm.
Beemet’s ammeter shunts provide a high level of stability and confirm IS:1248 specifications. Furthermore, our DC shunts are approved by DOT (CACT) in Bangalore. Our Shunts are available in various configurations and can be customized to suit your requirements.
Whether you need a DC shunt for industrial, automotive, or other applications, Beemet has the right solution for you. Our DC shunts are even compatible with the EVs.

Installation
• Shunts may be mounted horizontally or vertically. Horizontal mounting gives the best heat dissipation.
• Utilize the full end block surface area.
• Ample ventilation should be provided.
• Busbar should be adequately rated, cleaned and coated with a thin layer of silicon grease applied to the contact surface area.
• Bolts & nuts must be carefully tightened.
