Description Thermal-Link (ATCO)-Alloy Type is defined as a non-resettable protective device functioning one time only. It is widely used in electrical equipment. ATCO is mainly consist of fusible alloy, flux resin, case, sealant and lead wires. Normally, fusible alloy is jointed to the two lead wires. Under abnormal conditions, when the temp. reaches to the fusing temp. of ATCO, the fusible alloy melts and quickly retracts to the two lead wire ends with the aid of the flux resin and disconnects the circuit completely.

Agency Information Agency Symbol 1. Soldering should be carried out according to Table T-1. 2. The thermal element of ATCO is fusible alloy with low melting point, which is jointed with ATCO lead wires. Improper soldering operation (too high soldering temp. , too long soldering time, too short lead wire etc.) may transfer more heat to the thermal element and ATCO may open in advance. 3. When soldering conditions are more severe than those listed in Table T-1, a heat sink fixture should be used between soldering point and ATCO body. 4. When soldering, please do not pull / push or twist ATCO body...

Wave Soldering The wave soldering parameters as Table T-2, for reference only, when ATCO is for practice use, you need to do some validation experiments. For example, using X-RAY to see the fusible alloy of ATCO whether damage after wave soldering. TABLE T-2 Wave Soldering Parameters Setting Max. Wave Soldering Temp. Preheating Temp.

Thermal-Link (ATCO)-Alloy Type ATTENTION Usage 1. When atmosphere pressure is from 80 kPa to 106 kPa, the related altitude shall be from 2000 meters to - 500 meters. 2. Operating voltage less than rated voltage of ATCO, operating current less than rated current of ATCO. 3. Do not touch the ATCO body or lead wires directly when power is on, to avoid burn or electric shock. Replace ATCO is a non-repairable product. For safety sake, it shall be replaced by an equivalent ATCO from the same manufacturer, and mounted in the same way. Storage Do not store the ATCO at the high temp., high humidity or...

Mechanical ConnectionRiveting 1. Choose small resistivity riveting material and be riveted. 2. A flexible lead or lead with low resistance should be used to rivet the ATCO. 3. Contact resistance should be minimal, large contact resistance will lead to higher temp., ATCO Functioning in advance. 1. Choose small resistivity crimping material and be crimped. 2. A flexible lead or lead with low resistance should be used to rivet the ATCO. 3. Contact resistance should be minimal, large contact resistance will lead to higher Temp., ATCO Functioning in advance. 1. If lead wire has to be bent, please...
