Thermal Cutoffs are compact, non-resettable thermal protection devices that interrupt current when a predefined temperature is reached. They protect against overheating in appliances and electronics, reducing the risk of damage and fire. Key attributes - Function: fast, reliable overheat protection by opening the circuit at the rated temperature. - Compatibility: available in multiple temperature ratings and sizes; designed for use in household appliances, power tools, electronics, and enclosed systems; select the rating that matches your device. - Size and material: metal outer shell with an insulating core; range of diameters and lengths to fit compact spaces. - Performance: one-time operation with quick response to rising temperature; robust construction for dependable protection. Applications - Coffee makers, kettles, toasters: protects heating elements if control fails or airflow is blocked. - Hair dryers, drills, and other hand tools: guards motors and wiring against overheating. - Battery packs, chargers, and enclosed electronics: helps prevent overheating and potential thermal runaway in compact assemblies. Notes - These are non-resettable; once activated they must be replaced. - Choose the correct temperature rating and size for your equipment.
