DESCRIPTION
Hawkeye 904, 934, and 720 current monitoring devices provide unique solutions
for accurately monitoring status of motors controlled by variable frequency drives.
The microprocessor-based H904 and H934 store the sensed amperage values
for normal operation at various frequency ranges in non-volatile memory. This
information allows the device to distinguish between a reduced amp draw due to
normal changes in the frequency and an abnormal amp drop due to belt loss or other
mechanical failures. The relay on the H934 is isolated from the current switch, and all
relay connections are externally accessible on the device.
The H720 analog output corresponds to current in the monitored conductor from 10
to 80 Hz.
APPLICATIONS
current monitoring
● Monitoring positive status on motors controlled by variable frequency drives
● Replacing pressure switches
● Measuring current and load trending

Now you can easily detect when drive belts slip, break, or pump couplings shear.
In fact, a typical HVAC motor that loses its load has a reduction of current draw
of up to 50%. That’s why our sensors are the industry standard for status.
