Adjustable Status Switches (Split & Solid Core)

The A/ACS and A/ASCS Series current switches have a solid-state output with an adjustable trip point
(setpoint). The switches are ideal for providing status information on equipment using an AC current.
They should be used in applications requiring a current switch with an adjustable trip point. A normally
closed version (X) is also available. Every device on this cutsheet features a patented Din-Rail mounting
system (Pat. no. US 7,416,421) for ease of installation.
