New Product

Single-phase Current Relay K8DT-AS Detect errors in motors and other equipment through current changes. Use in either overcurrent or undercurrent mode. Monitor AC or DC currents with one Relay. Use with commercially available CTs (CT secondary side: 0 to 1 A or 0 to 5 A). Settings for the operating value, hysteresis, startup lock time, and operating time. Width of 17.5 mm to reduce space required in panels. Push-In Plus Terminal that reduce wiring work. The use of cage clamps enables wiring with bare stranded wires. Double-insertion holes for crossover wiring (all terminals). UL listed for easy shipping to North America.

Models added with transistor outputs for superior contact reliability. For the most recent information on models that have been certified for safety
