FEATURES

Thermal cutoffs are single action devices that open when a preset temper-ature is reached. They do not reset. The active component of a thermal cutoff is a fusible alloy surrounded by a special resin. Under normal operating temperatures the fusible alloy joins the two lead wires within the body of the cutoff. When the preset temperature of the cutoff is reached, the fusible alloy melts and with the aid of the special resin, complete cutoff is ensured. Thermal cutoffs are available in both Axial and Radial configurations as shown and with current ratings from 1/2 Amp to 7 Amps. • Various temperature set-tings • Miniature size • Current rating: Up to 7 Amps • Economical • Accurate • Large inventory; same dayshipping • Various mounting options ClosedOpen
