Fixed Status Switches (Split & Solid Core)

The A/CS and A/SCS Series current switches have a solid-state output with a fixed trip point (setpoint).
These switches are ideal for providing status information on any type of AC current using equipment. They
should be used in applications requiring a “Go/No Go” current switch. A change in the operating current
may indicate mechanical failure or that the unit has been turned off. Units also include a red “Status” LED
that will indicate whether the current is above or below the fixed 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.

ORDERING

Select one Current Switch (A). NOTE: LEDs should not be used to indicate whether power or current is being applied to or running through the
aperture of the sensor. Current Switches are not to be used in Life & Safety applications, or in hazardous locations.
