Quite often we are asked how to trip an alarm with a high current input signal. An engineering company is constructing a system to test solenoids. The circuit typically generates a current flow of 1 Amp. A 0.5W 1 Watt precision resistor connected in series with the current loop produces a 500 millivolt signal. This 500mV signal becomes the input to a Slimpak G108-0001 Limit Alarm. A Hi alarm is indicated if the solenoid is drawing too much current and a Lo alarm if the solenoid is drawing insufficient current.

If an AC powered module is preferred, either the Action Pak 1090-2000 or an ActionI/Q Q106-0000 may be used.
