Current Switch - Normally Closed
The CR9400 Series is a low cost, self powered, fixed set-point Current
Switch designed for applications that require an on-off indication of
current flow.
The normal state of the switch is On when the current level is zero. Cur-
rent levels above the guaranteed full-off level will turn the output to Off.
The Current Switch is recommended only for applications where the
continuous operating level is above the rated full on level of 350 mA.
Operation below this point will not drive the output device full-on and
derate the output ratings.
The unit available with a SCR output for switching AC. Connections can
be made directly to items such as a PLC or electro-mechanical relay.
Note that connections made directly to an inductive device such as an
electro-mechanical relay will require a customer supplied clamping
diode for DC operation or a snubber network for AC operation.
