Product Overview

The H706 is a current-sensitive switching device that monitors current (amperage) in the conductor passing through it. A change in amperage in the monitored conductor that crosses the switch (setpoint) threshold plus the hysteresis value causes the resistance of the solid-state status output to change state, similar to the action of a mechanical switch. In this model, the setpoint is adjustable through the action of a twenty (20) turn potentiometer (see the Calibration sec tion). The status output is suitable for connection to building controllers or other appropriate data acquisition equipment operating at up to 30 volts. The H706 requires 5-30 VDC external power supply to generate its output.

Disconnect and lock out power to the enclosure containing the conductor to be monitored.

1. Locate a mounting surface for the removable mounting bracket that will allow the monitored conduc tor to pass through the center window when it is installed and that will keep the device at least ½” (13 mm) from any uninsulated conductors. Determine cable routing for the controller connection, allowing wiring to reach the mounting location.

2. Drill holes to mount the bracket to the chosen surface using the included screws.

3. Wire the output connections from the sensor to the controller (solidstate contact) and to the external power supply. Observe polarity.

4. Route the conductor through the sensor’s center window and slip the assembly into the mounting bracket.

5. Secure the enclosure and reconnect power.

6. Calibrate the sensor with the load running normally.

Notes

For load currents greater than sensor maximum rating:

Use a 5 Amp (H68xx series) current transformer (CT) as shown. This technique can be combined with wrapping (see below) to add range for a low current load on a high current source.

240A

DANGER: 5A CTs can present hazardous voltages. Install

CTs in accordance with manufacturer's instructions. Terminate the CT secondary before applying current.

For load currents less than sensor minimum rating:

Wrap the monitored conductor through the center window and around the sensor body to produce multiple turns. This increases the current measured by the transducer. Program the controller to account for the extra turns (e.g., if four turns pass through the sensor (as shown) divide the normal reading by 4).

< 1 A (sensor max.)

0.5A

• Derate the product’s maximum current for the number of turns through the sensing window using the following formula.

Rated Max. Amps ÷ Number of Turns = Max. monitored Amps

e.g. : 100A ÷ 4 Turns = 25 Amps max. in monitored conductor

• Failure to follow these instructions can result in overheating and permanent equipment damage.

Calibration

Before beginning calibration, establish normal load conditions. Then choose either A or B below.

A. To monitor under-current (belt loss, coupling shear, status)

1. Turn setpoint screw clockwise until Status Closed LED turns on.

2. Slowly turn the screw counter clockwise until the Status Open LED turns on.

3. Turn the screw an additional ¼ turn counter clockwise for operational margin.

Problem Solution

No Reading at Controller • Check sensor calibration (see above)

• Check for control power at sensor (5VDC<voltage<30VDC)

• Check for amperage in monitored conductor (>1A)

• Verify correct polarity

Setpoint screw has no stops • The setpoint screw has a slip-clutch at both ends of its travel to avoid damage. Twenty turns CCW will reset

Both LEDs are lit Unit is out of calibration. Turn screw 20 turns CCW and recalibrate.
