Benefits

Durable sputtered Ruthenium Contact. RoHS Compliant. Not ESD sensitive. Does not require power for operation.

Description

These thermal reed sensors can accurately monitor temperature within 2-3C and are suitable for a wide range of applications. The load switching capability is that of the reed switch used, which is 30W. As these are a direct replacement to bimetallic strips, these themal reed sensors are only available in a normally closed, form B type contact, which opens when the configured temperature is reached.
