Benefit from Cost-Effective Motor Monitoring and Over-Load Protection with ASXP Current Sensing Switch

Current relay provides control engineers with features that help solve maintenance requirements for single and three-phase motors
NK Technologies’ ASXP Current Sensing Switch is now available with a user-adjustable setpoint from 1-80A. ASXP Series Current Operated Switches are powered versions of the company’s popular current switches with integral time delay. For use with 24 VAC/DC or 120 VAC supplies, these switches deliver OEM-caliber accuracy, precision tolerances, low hysteresis and an operation range between 40 and 100 hertz – functionality ideal for monitoring single and three-phase motors. They come standard with a robust solid-core enclosure and LED indicators for trip point contact status.

Easily Monitor High AC Current Loads with the ATS Current Transducer/Switch

ATS monitors AC current up to 1200 amps and provides complete isolation between the primary circuit and controls in a single, compact package
NK Technologies introduces the ATS Current Sensing Switch and Transducer. The ATS series is a one piece solution that combines a limit alarm with an analog output signal transducer to monitor produced or consumed AC current up to 1200 amps, while magnetically isolating outputs and inputs to maximize safety. An innovative and patent pending rotary switch makes it easy for users to set the trip point. DIN rail mounting simplifies installation and provides an extremely secure mount that is resistant to conductor movement.

Simplify Current Load Monitoring and Help Keep Motors Performing Optimally with ASM Smart Switch

New self-calibrating and self-powered Smart-Switch eliminates the need to manually adjust the sensor trip point, and is compatible with any automation system
NK Technologies introduces the newly re-designed ASM Series Smart-Switch. These self-calibrating switches use the actual load current to set the trip point and provide the simplest way to ensure that a motor is working properly. These current sensing Smart-Switches are self-powered and self-calibrating to speed start-up and minimize installation costs. Three models are available to provide status monitoring, overload or under load, or operating window (overload and under load) functionality to suit particular pump, fan, heating element, conveyor or multi-load safety-interlocked application needs. The output contact is AC and DC compatible for use with any automation system.

Seamlessly Convert a CT Signal to a Standard 4-20mA Output

Provides simple solution for monitoring current in applications where one-piece sensors are impractical or impossible to install
NK Technologies introduces CTC Series Signal Converters. With the CTC series users can utilize an existing standard 5 amp secondary CT or low voltage (0.333 VAC) ProteCTTM current transformer with non-contact ranges as low as 0 – 5 amps over a conductor to produce a standard 4-20mA two-wire, loop-powered signal. With DIN rail mounting and a 24 VDC loop-powered supply, the CTC series provides simple snap-in installation that requires no calibration because the primary current transformer ratio provides the scaling required without any installer intervention.

Easily Monitor DC Current with New DT Series Current Transducers

Large aperture design makes it easy to seamlessly monitor any circuit up to 1200 amps
NK Technologies introduces DT Series Large Aperture Current Transducers. The DT series combines a hall effect sensor and signal conditioner into a single package for use in DC current applications up to 1200 amps. Factory calibrated ranges simplify operation and eliminate zero and span pots. Industry standard 4-20mA, 0 – 5VDC or 0 – 10VDC outputs are magnetically isolated from the input to provide maximum safety, and eliminate insertion losses. Internal power regulation delivers reliable operation and helps keep installation costs low, even in applications with unregulated power. A DIN-rail mount enclosure makes installation easy..

Easily Monitor Current Usage of Loads up to 2000 Amps with ATCR

Innovative design enables installer to pass the coil around the conductors, without having to disconnect existing wires.  NK Technologies introduces ATCR Series Current Transducers. ATCR flexible loop current transducers are a perfectly matched and factory calibrated sensing coil and True RMS signal conditioner that use just two wires to provide the power supply and output signal, while eliminating the need to disconnect existing wires. This makes them a uniquely simple and convenient means of monitoring resistive or inductive loads to detect current usage on large machines using AC current up to 2000 amps. They meet UL508 and CE requirements, making them suitable for global application.

Maximize Motor and Drive Operating Life Prevent System Failures with new VTD High Performance Voltage Transducer

VTD series is a cost-effective solution for monitoring, detecting and diagnosing voltage conditions in DC powered installations NK Technologies introduces VTD Series high-performance voltage transducers. Packaged in a compact and easy-to-install 35mm wide DIN-rail enclosure, the VTD series senses voltage in a wide variety of DC powered installations, including industrial motors, battery chargers, photovoltaic arrays and wind generators. These cost-effective voltage transducers help avoid motor overheating by detecting below normal voltage conditions, and detect voltage conditions that can stress or damage starter components. Monitoring DC voltage enables operators to know that the system is ready even before there is a load connected to it.

New CTC Series Signal Converter

CTC Series Signal Converters allow you to use an existing standard 5A secondary or low-voltage ProteCT™ current transformer over a conductor to produce an industry standard 4-20mA two-wire, loop-powered signal. The signal is proportional to the current in the primary circuit. The CTC series snaps onto a standard DIN rail. The output is connected to the load and a 24 VDC source and the current transformer is connected.
