Function

Over-Temperature Protector

Design

Fusible Link

Load:

Resistive
Inductive

These cost-effective, thermal fuses function when the operating or ambient temperature rises above a pre-set level. At that point the organic pellet melts causing an internal barrel spring to expand and breaks the contacts to open the circuit.

FEATURES

  • Single operation device. Once activated the electrical circuit remains permanently open until fuse is replaced.
  • Quick Break: When operating or ambient temperature rises above calibration point, organic pellet quickly melts breaking circuit.
  • Cost-Effective: Thermal fuses are among the least expensive circuit protection devices available.
  • Custom Configurations:  Customized lead lenghts, bending of leads, and various terminal options are available. Please contact us regarding termination options.
