Single-phase Current Relay

K8AK-AS

Ideal for current monitoring for 

industrial facilities and equipment.

• Monitor for overcurrents or undercurrents.

• Use commercially available CTs (CT current on secondary 

side: 0 to 1 A or 0 to 5 A).

• Manual resetting and automatically resetting supported by one 

Relay.

• Startup lock and operating time can be set separately.

• One SPDT output relay, 5 A at 250 VAC (resistive load).

• Output relay can be switched between normally open and 

normally closed.

• Output status can be monitored using LED indicator.

• Inputs are isolated from the power supply.
