NK Technologies - AS3 Series, Multi-Range AC Current Operated Switches
 
AS3 Series Current Operated Switches provide the same dependable indication of status offered by the AS1, but with the added benefit of increased setpoint accuracy. A choice of three, jumper-selectable input ranges allows the AS3 to be tailored to an application, providing more precise control through improved setpoint resolution. Self-powering, isolated solid-state outputs, 1–6A, 6–40A and 40–200A input ranges, and a choice of split- or solid-core enclosures are standard. NK Technologies AS3 Series
