The operating principle of the 17AME is both simple and effective. At the heart of the protector is a bimetal snap action disc. When the temperature of this disc reaches its rated temperature it snaps open, resulting in an open circuit. This temperature is reached during a fault condition, caused by either an increase in ambient temperature, an increase in current flowing through the disc, or a combination of both. After the 17AME breaks the circuit, the system cools and the 17AME automatically resets allowing power to be restored to the circuit.

Each 17AME rating has a bimetal disc designed and manufactured for that specific temperature rating. Each individual device is then calibrated and checked for opening temperature. This results in precise operating characteristics necessary to achieve consistent, reliable performance over the required life cycle. This high level of performance is obtained thru our traditional emphasis on quality.
