Temperature Sensors - Thermostats - Mechanical

Temperature sensors have been around in some form or another for hundreds of years, and their application and science remain the same today. The 3150 00230168 is a thermostat from the mechanical type. This type of thermostat is a basic and reliable type that often uses a bimetal strip or a plunger to act as a switch to control the temperature. This article will explain the application of the 3150 00230168 in detail, as well as how it works.

Application

The 3150 00230168 is a mechanical thermostat that is designed for use in industrial, commercial and residential applications. These thermostats generally range from 210°F to 450°F, and there are several different contact ratings dependent upon the application. The 3150 00230168 is used in a variety of applications including space heating, air conditioning, water heating, fan control, and lighting control.

Working Principle

The 3150 00230168 works by using a bimetallic strip or a plunger mechanism to sense and respond to changes in temperature. As the temperature rises or falls, the bimetal strip or plunger is activated, which causes the switch to close or open, depending on the setting of the thermostat. The bimetal strip or plunger is adjusted to the required setting by either a range or a dial. The 3150 00230168 works on two basic principles. First, the strip or plunger will allow power to flow through the switch when the temperature reaches the desired setting. Second, when the temperature drops below the desired setting, the switch will open, disconnecting the power source. When the temperature rises again, the switch will reconnect, restoring power flow.

Conclusion

The 3150 00230168 is an excellent and reliable choice for a variety of temperature sensing applications such as space heating, air conditioning, water heating, fan control, and lighting control. It is a mechanical thermostat that uses bimetal strip or a plunger to sense and respond to changes in temperature. The switch will connect when the temperature is above the desired setting, and disconnect when the temperature drops. This allows the power to flow only when the desired temperature is reached.
