Its impact-resistant housing with high-quality plastic cover and die-cast aluminum base makes the 1-pin mechanical body thermostat very robust and can also be used under harsh conditions. The measuring system used works according to the principle of liquid expansion and can be used without any problem up to a maximum admissible sensor temperature of 405 °C. The steel plunge pipe has a conical diameter of 12 mm to 8 mm. It is attached using a 30 mm diameter sweatband. The maximum permissible ambient temperature on the housing (protection type IP54) is 80 °C. The desired shutdown temperature can be easily adjusted with the help of a screw driver after removing the cover on the inside on a scale. The safety temperature monitor is characterized by a high switching point accuracy of +0/-5% in the upper scale third. If the measuring system is destroyed, the circuit is permanently opened. The switch contact is then in the neutral position so that no contacts are switched. If the sensor cools to a temperature below approx. -20 °C the circuit is also opened, only when the temperature rises above approx. -20 °C the contact is closed again. A decisive advantage is that no additional power supply is required for measuring the temperature. The electrical connection is made by screw terminals directly on the micro switch built-in, which can directly switch a maximum permissible switching capacity of AC 230 Volt / 10 A. The safety temperature monitor can be used very flexibly and is used both in the heating, air-conditioning, and ventilation technology as well as in the plastic industry, the apparatus and mechanical engineering as well as in furnace construction, in district heating transfer stations and for temperature monitoring in laboratories and air conditioning cabinets. The device is approved according to DIN EN 14597 and DGRL and has an EAC approval.This text is machine translated.
