Thermal switches are used in power supplies in case of overload and also as thermostats and overheat protection in some heating and cooling systems.
Thermal overload protection switch.
Temperature of each bimetal has been calibrated precisely.
Resistance as a function of the temperature for a typical thermal switch.
Schematic diagram of a basic motor control scheme.
For understanding motor thermal overload protection in induction motor we can discuss the operating principle of three phase induction motor.
Rts stands for reflowable thermal switch.
How to wire reset overload protector switch the over current overload protector wiring is very simple and many places for single phase one phase supply we use it in series connection between supply and the load.
Tn is typically around 150 160 c.
17am d motor thermal protection switch the thermal overload relay motor thermal protection switch is designed with reasonable structure compact size large capacity contacts and long service life.
In the below diagram i shown a overload thermal protector which i wired in series connection.
It was developed to protect highly integrated power electronics from overheating such as those used in the automotive medical and many other industries.
To understand the basic principle of thermal overload protection let s examine the schematic diagram of a basic motor control scheme.
There is one cylindrical stator and a three phase winding is symmetrically distributed in the inner periphery of the stator.
The most basic safety scheme of the motor is thermal with load protection which mainly covers the protection of all the above conditions.
Depending on the thermal switch manufacturer the curve changes.
Unlike a thermal fuse a thermal switch is usually reusable and is therefore suited to protecting against temporary situations which are common and user correctable.
17am d z motor thermal protection switch 17am d z is developed on the base of 17am d widely used throughout the world in electric.
Rts is a particularly compact overtemperature protection device for power semiconductors in smd technology.
Go back to index connection.
Connection of a three phase motor with built in thermal switch and overload relay.
Tp designation for the diagram.
