Installation & Operation Instructions
Part # A/ACS2, A/ACSX2, A/ASCS2, A/ASCS2-L, A/ASCSX2
PRECAUTIONS
• This product is not intended to be used for
Life or Safety applications.
• This product is not intended for use in any
hazardous or classi ed locations.
• The A/ACS2, A/ACSX2, A/ASCS2 & A/ASCSX2
Series Adjustable Switches must be used on
Insulated Conductors Only.
HIGH VOLTAGE
• Disconnect and lock out all power sources
before installation as severe injury or death
may result from electrical shock due to
contact with high voltage wires.
• Never rely on the Red LED to determine
whether power is present at the current
switch. At very low monitored input currents
the Red LED may not light to indicate the
current is above the trip point.
GENERAL INFORMATION
The Adjustable Current Switches are designed for
use in any AC current monitoring application in
which you are looking to monitor a particular piece
of equipment for equipment failure, preventative
maintenance, status, and electrical load status. The
current switches should be installed on the line side
of the power to the electrical equipment.
current switches are available in both solid and
split-core versions which also includes a Patented 35
mm Din Rail mounting foot for easy installation in
panel mount applications. The adjustable current
switches can be used to determine the run time of
your equipment as well as basic load trending applications where you want to know when how long your
piece of equipment runs when logging the contact closures on your building management system or PLC.
INSTALLATION
Ensure all installations are in compliance with all national and local electrical codes. Only quali ed
individuals that are familiar with codes, standards, and proper safety procedures for high-voltage
installations should attempt installation. The current switches will not require external power because the
power for the current switch is induced from the conductor being monitored.
