The Johnson Controls R310AE-2 is a current sensing switch designed to detect the presence or absence of current flow in HVAC and building automation systems. With a wide operating voltage range of 0–250 Vac/Vdc, this switch provides versatile, reliable current detection across a broad range of electrical circuits and equipment.
Current sensing switches like the R310AE-2 are essential components in commercial and residential HVAC applications, enabling control systems to verify that motors, fans, pumps, and other loads are actually running — not just energized. This helps protect equipment, trigger alarms, and confirm proper system operation without direct contact with the monitored conductor.
