CTSS0000 Current Sensor Switch 150A AC Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CTSS0000 is an AC current sensor switch manufactured by Red Lion Controls, designed for single-channel current sensing applications up to 150A. This module operates as a bidirectional current switch with solid-state relay (SSR) output, suitable for chassis mount installations. The product is currently active in production with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are maintained across the CTS series, ensuring functional interchangeability in applications requiring 150A AC current sensing with identical output characteristics and operating specifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CTSS0000 is determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part CTSF0000 maintains identical specifications in the following key areas:

Electrical Parameters: Current sensing capacity (150A), single channel configuration, SSR output type, bidirectional polarization, frequency response (6Hz ~ 100Hz), response time (120ms), self-powered supply architecture, and maximum supply current (150mA).

Mechanical Parameters: Chassis mount installation method, module single pass-through package configuration, and operating temperature range (-50°C ~ 65°C).

Compliance Parameters: ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and moisture sensitivity level 1 classification.

Parts are grouped as direct substitutes only when all parameters listed above are identical. No parameter deviation is permitted for substitution classification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both CTSS0000 and CTSF0000 are active production parts from Red Lion Controls with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected certification. Selection between these parts is based on inventory availability and procurement lead time, as all electrical, mechanical, and compliance specifications are identical.

The CTSS0000 maintains 1111 pieces in current inventory stock. The CTSF0000 maintains 891 pieces in current inventory stock. Both parts satisfy identical application requirements for 150A AC current sensing with single-channel SSR output in chassis mount configurations.

No technical differentiation exists between these parts. Component selection should be determined by supply chain requirements and delivery schedules.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CTSF0000 replace CTSS0000 in existing applications?

A: Yes. The CTSF0000 is a direct substitute for CTSS0000. All electrical parameters (150A current sensing, SSR output, 120ms response time, 6Hz ~ 100Hz frequency range), mechanical specifications (chassis mount, single pass-through module package), and compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH unaffected) are identical.

Q: Are there any differences in operating temperature range between these parts?

A: No. Both CTSS0000 and CTSF0000 operate across the identical temperature range of -50°C to 65°C.

Q: Do both parts require identical mounting configurations?

A: Yes. Both parts use chassis mount installation with module single pass-through package type. No modification to mounting hardware or installation procedures is required when substituting between these parts.

Q: What is the significance of the self-powered supply specification?

A: Both parts operate as self-powered devices, requiring no external power supply connection. The maximum supply current specification of 150mA is identical for both parts.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between CTSS0000 and CTSF0000?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical ROHS3 compliance status and REACH unaffected classification. Moisture sensitivity level is 1 (unlimited) for both parts.

Q: What determines substitution eligibility for CTS series current sensors?

A: Substitution is based on exact equivalence across current sensing capacity, channel configuration, output type, polarization, frequency response, response time, supply architecture, operating temperature range, mounting type, package configuration, and compliance certifications. Any deviation in these parameters disqualifies substitution.
