PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The H11D is an over-current and under-current monitor intended for use with HVAC 
systems (fans, blowers). When the H11D is unpowered, the status output contacts 
are open. When the device is powered, the contacts close and remain closed during 
normal operation. The H11D learns the nominal amperage in the conductor, then 
monitors for amperage changes outside the range chosen using the slide switch. If 
the amperage goes out of the established range, the contacts open, raising an alarm 
in the system controller. This alarm state persists until the amperage comes back to 
within range (5% of learned nominal rate below the upper trip limit or 5% of learned 
nominal rate above the lower trip limit of the learned nominal conditions) and 
remains within range for 30 seconds to ensure that the system has truly returned to 
normal operation. If load conditions change, use the reset button to send the H11D 
back into learning mode.

The status output is suitable for connection to system controllers or other data 
acquisition equipment operating at up to 1 A@30 VAC/DC. The H11D requires no 
external power supply to generate its output. 

CALIBRATION

The H11D automatically calibrates when first powered and each time it is 
reset. Before beginning calibration, establish normal load conditions.

1.  When amperage flows through the conductor, the H11D automatically enters the 

learning mode for approximately 30 seconds. 

2.  When in normal operation (after learning mode is complete), the LCD cycles 

between the values for the present amperage in the conductor (designated by the 
indicator adjacent to NOW) and the learned nominal amperage (designated by the 
indicator adacent to Lrnd).

3.  If the nominal load on the conductor changes, the H11D can re-learn the new 

conditions. Press the reset button to return to the learning mode.

A Standard ±40% of learned nominal amperage.

Max. learned nominal current is 142 A to enable an upper trip limit at or 

below 200 A.

B Alternate ±60% of learned nominal amperage.

Max. learned nominal current is 125 A to enable an upper trip limit at or 

below 200 A.

C On/Off 

Status

Contacts remain closed while amerage is above 2.5 A at 60 Hz.
Contacts open when amperage drops below 2.5 A.

Trip limits above the 200 A maximum are not permitted.

LCD Values

If the slide switch is in position A or B, the number shown in the LCD during normal 
operation cycles among the values listed below. An indicator appears to the right of 
the number, indicating which value is currently visible (Mem, NOW, or Lrnd)

Mem: 

 the trip memory, or the amperage value above or below range that 

tripped the switch into alarm mode. This value remains stored in nonvolatile 
memory until the H11D is reset.*  

NOW:

  the present amperage flowing through the conductor

Lrnd:

  the nominal amperage conditions established when the H11D is 

initially powered or reset.

* The LCD only shows the trip memory value (Mem) after a trip event has 
occurred. If no trip event has occurred, the LCD only cycles between NOW and 
Lrnd.

 

If the slide switch is in position C (on/off status only), the LCD does not cycle. The 
value displayed is always the present amperage flowing through the conductor, and 
the indicator remains on NOW.

*The LCD backlight remains off at low currents. It turns on when the current exceeds 4.5 A and 
flashes during the alarm state while the current remains above 4.5 A. 

Note:  In rare instances, status contacts may close momentarily when the unit initially recovers 
from an extended power off state (typically longer than 10 seconds) to an alarm state.
