Thermal Fuse
Therm-O-Disc microtemp fuse G5 for Refrigerator / Coffee maker
“Therm-O-Disc” thermal disc manufactured G5 series MICROTEMP® thermal fuse, specially designed for high current loads, depending on product specifications, contact capacity were up to AC250V 16A, AC250V 20A and AC120V 25A, entirely through the agency approvals UL and CSA.
thermal fuse and circuit breaker cutoff temperature
They are the same in that they can achieve short circuit protection. The principle of a thermal fuse is to use a current flowing through a conductor to cause the conductor to heat up. When the melting point of the conductor is reached, the conductor is melted so that the circuit-protected electrical appliances and lines are not burned.
Thermal Fuse Function and Application
The Thermal Fuse (Thermal Cutoff, Temperature Fuse) is Axial / Radial / Organic Thermal-Link(OTCO) safety parts that stops the flow of electricity to the motor circuit when a overheats. If the fuse is missing or broken, your motor will not start. The thermal fuse is sensitive to external temperature, and the operating temperature is accurate and stable. Small size, sealed structure. Reliable performance. Low resistance value. One-time action cuts off the current, and the current interruption capacity reaches 250VAC/25A.
