The CurrentWatch ECS7 Series load
monitoring switches from Eaton’s
electrical business are designed for
overload, underload or operating
window applications. Upon sensing
an average operating current, the
ECS7 Series self-learns and establishes a limit-alarm trip point based
on ± 15% of the average expected
current draw. The ECS7 Series is
available in solid- or split-core housing styles.
For typical applications of the CurrentWatch ECS7 Series, see listing to the
right.
