2455RM-91470926

Temperature sensors are used to measure temperatures of liquids, gases, and any other material with a known thermal capacity. The 2455RM-91470926 is a mechanical thermostat that utilizes a bimetallic element to detect temperature changes. It works on the principle of the differential expansion of a bimetallic strip. The bimetallic strip is made of two strips of different metals that are bonded together, usually brass and iron. When the temperature rises, the strip expands at different rates depending on the different coefficients of thermal expansion of the metals. As the temperatures changes, the expanded material forces a contact against a fixed point, which turns the switch on or off. This type of thermostat is simple and reliable, but it has a limited temperature range and has a slow response time when compared to electronic thermostats. This type of thermostat is most commonly used in low-power applications such as hot water heaters or space heaters. The 2455RM-91470926 has a temperature range of -20°C to 125°C (-4°F to 257°F). It is designed to cut off the heating or cooling after a certain temperature has been reached, such as when a hot water tank reaches its boiling point or when a room becomes too hot in summer. It can also be connected to a fan circuit to control the temperature of the air. The 2455RM-91470926 does not require an external power source, as it uses the heat of the element itself to control the switch. This makes it an economical choice for many applications.Another application of the 2455RM-91470926 is in HVAC systems, where it is used to regulate the temperature in a particular room or a section of a building. When the temperature rises above a certain level, the thermostat will open a circuit, allowing air to flow through to cool the area. Conversely, when the temperature drops below a certain level, the thermostat will close the circuit, limiting the amount of air entering the space. This helps maintain a comfortable temperature for occupants.The 2455RM-91470926 can also be used in industrial applications such as in food processing plants. It can be used to control the temperature of a mixture or solution, preventing it from spoiling or becoming dangerous to handle. It can also be used to detect and respond to dangerous temperature changes in industrial machinery.In summary, the 2455RM-91470926 is a reliable and cost-effective mechanical thermostat that is suitable for many different applications. It utilizes a bimetallic element to detect changes in temperature, and it is simple to install and use. It is suitable for both domestic and industrial applications, and it is a popular choice for HVAC systems, hot water tanks, and food processing.
