Description
The 18AM series thermal protector is an essential safety device designed to safeguard small motors, transformers, rectifiers, batteries, and various appliances. This current and temperature protector operates based on a sophisticated bimetallic mechanism. As the temperature rises due to heat generated by the appliance, the double-metal element reacts promptly by disconnecting the circuit when a predetermined temperature is reached. Once the temperature falls back to the designated level, the bimetal element resets, re-establishing the circuit. With its compact size, sensitive induction, and excellent sealing, this thermal protector ensures precise temperature control and reliable performance.
