NOTICE

•  This product is not intended for life or safety applications.

•  Do not install this product in hazardous or classified locations.

•  The installer is responsible for conformance to all applicable codes.

•  Mount this product inside a suitable fire and electrical enclosure.

INSTALLATION

Disconnect and lock out power to the enclosure containing the 

conductor to be monitored.

1.  Locate a mounting surface for the removable mounting bracket that will allow 

the monitored conductor to pass through the center window when it is installed 
and that will keep the device at least 1/2” from any uninsulated conductors. 
Determine cable routing for the controller connection, allowing wiring to reach 
the mounting location.

2.  Route the conductor through the sensor’s center window and slip the assembly 

into the mounting bracket. Terminate the conductor. See Notes (page 2) for 
currents under 1 Amp or above 135 Amps. 

3.  Wire the output connections to the DDC controller or switched load (solid state 

contact).

4.  Secure enclosure and reconnect power.

5.  Calibrate the sensor (see Calibration section).
