Applications

The applications are divided in two categories:
Temperature control: Here the thermostat is used to control temperature of end product between two levels.

Thermal overload protection: Here the thermostat is used to protect end product from overheating caused by overloading, blocked ventilation, increased ambient temperature, etc.

Applications as Temperature Control

Small Appliances
In this application, the thermal cutouts are used to maintain the temperature of small or personal care appliance such as Sandwich Toaster, Water Heaters, Vacuum Cleaners, Coffee Makers, Microwave Ovens, Washing Machine, Rice Cookers, Food Warmers, Room Heaters, Wax Heaters etc. Controls listed under this section have maximum contact ratings of up to 15 Amps/120 Volts DC and 24 Amps/250 Volts AC. All current loads are resistive.
Suggested Models are: N-8, N-9, N-2

Heating Pads and Blankets
In this application, the thermal cutouts are used to maintain the temperature of the product at comfortable level. The safety of user is also very important. Our thermal cutouts are used to limit or regulate the temperature of these products.
Suggested Models are: N-2, N-9

Industrial Heating Applications
This group includes applications such as Cartridge heaters, Tubular heaters, Disc-type heaters, Foil and Silicone heaters, Temperature controlling devices.
Suggested Models are: N-8, N-9

Temperature Sensor Applications
This category covers a wide variety of applications. Our cutouts are used to monitor, regulate or limit the temperature of devices such as temperature baths, Ovens, Boilers etc. The thermal cutouts usually do not carry the full current load in these applications.
Suggested Models are: N-8, N-9

Applications as Thermal Overload Protector

Appliance Applications
Thermal cutouts are used in home appliances to protect them from over-heating as backup protection device, in product such as Water Heaters, Vacuum Cleaners, Washing Machines, Microwave Ovens and Dish Dryers. Models listed under this section have maximum contact ratings of up to 15 Amps/120 Volts DC and 24 Amps/250 Volts AC. All current loads are resistive.
Suggested Models are: N-8, N-8M, N-9, N-2

Motor Applications
In this category Thermal Overload Protectors (TOP) are used to protect motors from Overload, Locked rotor and Short circuit condition. Our devices are used in AC and DC motors such as mono-block pump sets, 1/2 to 2 HP single phase motors.
Suggested Models are: N-2, SN-25

Transformer Applications
Thermal controls in this category are used for the protection of primary or secondary winding of a transformer or power supply. These controls normally operate on a combination of increase in temperature and current.
Suggested Models are: N-9, N-2

Battery Pack Applications
This application group refers to rechargeable battery packs for all portable power applications. The thermal cutouts for this group either control the charge rate of the battery packs or limit the current under short circuit conditions.
Suggested Models are: N-9, N-2

Electronics Applications
This category consists of variety of applications. Thermal cutouts used in these applications protect circuit board in overheat condition. The thermal cutout can be mounted on heat-sink.
Suggested Models are: N-8, N-8M, N-9

Lighting Applications
This category covers use of our thermal cutouts in all type of lighting applications. This includes ballasts, chokes and transformers used in all types of lighting.
Suggested Models are: N-8, N-8M, N-9, N-2

DC Automotive Application
This range of protectors is used for protection of DC motor of 12V-96V, where the protector provides protection against locked rotor and running overload condition. Wherein the protector trips the motor in 3-10 sec of fault condition. This range includes high current DC motor application like wiper motor, starter motor etc.
Suggested Models are: SN-25, N-2
