Current Sensing Switch Applications
Â
Welders and Platers
- Instant indication of equipment status.
Large Drive Motors
- Provides enhanced field loss protection.
Power Supplies
- Signals overcurrent before equipment fails.
Machine Operation
- Instant status of motors, lamps and other loads.
Telecom Sites
- Monitors battery output.
Current Sensing Switch Features
Â
Compact, One-piece Design
- Fits in easily amongst motor starters and power supplies in crowded control panels.
Input Isolation
- Safer than shunt/relay combinations.
Output Installation
- Isolated output greatly simplifies wiring.
Pluggable Terminals
- Speed installation.
Tough
- Designed to handle a wide range of temperatures found in industrial environments.
Adaptive Hysteresis
- Hysteresis is 5% of setpoint, allowing closer control than fixed hysteresis switches.
Built-in Mounting Feet
- Simple, two-screw installation allows for secure mounting.
UL/cUL and CE Approved
- Accepted worldwide.
Current Sensing Switch Connections
