Miniature Fixed Status Switches (Split & Solid Core)

The A/MCS and A/MSCS are miniature “Go/No Go” current status switches designed to replace relays in
most applications. These switches are small in stature, allowing for tight installations. The output of the
A/MCS and the A/MSCS current switches functions as a N/O switch, activated by the amount of sensed AC
current. The output of these switches uses a N/O solid-state switch (more reliable than a relay) and is
non-polarity sensitive. These units perform in any application where the amount of AC current flow is
sufficient to indicate the operating status of the sensed load.
