Application Examples
See Figure 5 and Figure 6 for two different current switch applications. Figure 5 shows the use of the Go/No Go Current
Switch as a Digital Input to your BAS/PLC Controller. Figure 6 shows a Go/No/Go Current Switch in conjunction with a
Contactor to control an exhaust fan.
NOTE
The Go/No Go Current switches are only rated at 0.2A @ 200 VAC/VDC and must use an additional Contactor if
controlling motor/fans.
Troubleshooting
Problem
Solution
LED is
on but the current switch didn’t activate
Disconnect the wires from the current switch output.
Measure the resistance across the contacts with an
Ohmmeter. See Specifications table for the actual
resistance readings for an open or closed switch reading.
L
ED didn’t turn on and the current switch didn’t
activate
Verify that the current flowing in the conductor being
monitored is above the fixed trip point as listed in the
operating specifications. If the sensor is monitoring less
than the fixed trip point, see Figure 3.
LED not on but the Current Switch is Activated
LED not indicating correctly, may have been damaged.
Current Switch is operating at a low-level current or
failing to operate within the accuracy specifications
For NSA-A/ASCS2 Series, visually check the mating parts
of the core to ensure there is no debris between the split
contacts. Remove all debris or dust manually and close
the current sensor, see Figure 2. Retest the sensor in your
application.
