Specifications
Ratings
*1.
The gate input enables correct measurement by syncing to heater control.
When using it with ON/OFF control, receive the relay contact output from the temperature controller or other controller with a 24-VDC auxiliary
relay and then use this signal as the gate input signal to the K8AC.
The gate function can also be disabled. If it is disabled, the gate input can be used as a normal undercurrent/overcurrent relay.
*2.
When using the K8AC-H for a 380 to 480-V AC power supply circuit, use a step-down transformer. Contact your OMRON representative for
information on transformers.
*3.
Order the Current Transformers separately.
