Features and Overview /\ Top

Snap–action Klixon disc
ENEC, UL, CSA approvals
Wide temperature range: 45°C to 170°C
Standard 5K tolerance
Different bimetal resistivity
Robust design: bimetal disc is protected by nickel–plated steel supports for superior cycling performance
Full automated live: Provides stable setting values
Low price: This particular design provides high competitively
Flexible mounting with three terminal configurations available: on same end, on opposite end, on opposite end with holes
Self–hold version is available as the TH11 or TH21 series: Identical construction but resistive material on one ceramic pin (identical dimensions mean that the TH10, TH11, and TH21 can be easily exchanged with one another)

Motor Control

CODE: TH10 Series


Sensata Technologies has developed the TH10 temperature cut–out to respond to the need of increasing the power in heating and personal care appliances. As a result of this, Sensata has further established its leading position in the worldwide thermal protection market.

The operating principle of the TH10 is simple and effective. A current flows through the resistive Klixon bimetal disc. When a fault condition occurs, the increased ambient temperature causes the bimetal disc to snap open the contacts. As the device cools down to a safe temperature again, the contacts will automatically reset.
