Veris Industries H-609 Current Switch

The Veris Industries H-609 Current Switch is a high-performance mini split-core current sensor engineered for precision monitoring of line voltage loads in building automation and HVAC systems. Designed for veterans in the field, this adjustable trip point current switch features a compact form factor, making it an ideal solution for tight starter enclosures where space is at a premium. With a sensing range of 1.25 to 50 Amps, it effectively detects belt loss, coupling shear, and mechanical motor failure without the need for additional external power, as the device is entirely induced from the monitored conductor.

The H-609 Hawkeye utilizes a 20-turn potentiometer for fine-tuning the setpoint, coupled with a status LED for immediate local indication during HVAC motor status monitoring. Its split-core design allows for rapid installation on existing insulated conductors without disconnecting the circuit, significantly reducing labor time. The normally open (N.O.) solid-state output is rated for 0.2A at 120 VAC/DC, providing a reliable digital signal to DDC controllers or PLCs.

• Flexible Installation: The removable mounting bracket and split-core frame allow for versatile placement in crowded electrical panels.
• Self-Powered Logic: Eliminates the need for external power supplies, simplifying wiring and improving long-term reliability.
• High Precision: The 1.25A minimum trip point ensures accurate sensing even on smaller fractional horsepower motors and exhaust fans.
• Diagnostic Feedback: Integrated LEDs provide clear visual confirmation of the switch state, streamlining the calibration process.

How do I calibrate the H-609 for a specific motor?
With the motor running under normal load, turn the setpoint screw clockwise until the 'Status Open' LED lights up, then turn it counter-clockwise until the 'Status Closed' LED engages. Add an additional 1/4 turn for operational margin.

Can this switch be used on VFD applications?
Yes, it can monitor motor status on the output side of a VFD, though the frequency should remain within the 50/60 Hz range for optimal accuracy. For specialized VFD sensing, verify your specific minimum frequency requirements.

What is the maximum wire gauge the H-609 can accommodate?
The internal window is designed for insulated conductors up to 0.5 inches in diameter, and the terminal blocks support wiring from 24 to 14 AWG.
