315000200534 application field and working principle

Introduction

Thermostats are temperature sensors, and 315000200534 is one of them. It is a kind of mechanical temperature sensor, which is used for temperature testing before and after industrial production, and it is suitable for use in a variety of machinery or motor pumps.

Application Field

The 315000200534 thermostats are not only used to measure the temperature of industrial products, but also suitable for temperature measurement in the following areas: environment, semiconductor, HVAC, medical, food processing, lab equipment, fire safety, audio and gaming, mobile computing, power supply, air compressors, automotive and commercial.

Working Principle

The 315000200534 uses a thermal bi-metal element and electro-mechanical contacts to function. The thermal bi-metal element directly senses the temperature and when the temperature exceeds the set temperature, the thermal bi-metal element is bent due to the change in temperature. Then, the squeezing force of the spring causes the contact to close or open. This controls the circuit, so the thermal bi-metal element form an electric switch. Since it is a mechanical contact switch and not an electronic switch, it can be used for low power circuits such as short circuit protection, overcurrent protection, zero sequence protection or other thermal protection.

Conclusion

The 315000200534 is a kind of mechanical temperature sensor and it has various application fields such as environment, HVAC, medical, food processing, etc. It works by using a thermal bi-metal element and electro-mechanical contacts, which form an electric switch to control the circuit. This temperature sensor is reliable and cost-effective, making it a great choice for temperature measurement applications.
