Temperature Sensors - Thermostats - Mechanical

The 3450R82570088 is a mechanical temperature sensor that can measure temperature with a range between 0 and 250°C. This sensor is suitable for use in HVAC systems, liquid gas, and other temperature-related applications. It has a rugged structure and is easy to maintain and install. With its reliable performance, the 3450R82570088 is widely used in homes, commercial settings, and industrial plants.

The working principle of a mechanical temperature sensor is based on a thermometer component consisting of a sealed liquid or gas-filled chamber. The liquid or gas inside the chamber is temperature sensitive and expands or contracts when exposed to heat. This expansion or contraction applies pressure to a pressure gauge, which in turn moves a needle on the gauge from one end to another. The movement of the needle indicates the temperature. The other components of a mechanical temperature sensor include a thermocouple and a heat sink.

The thermocouple generates an electric current by taking advantage of the Seebeck effect, which states that a temperature difference between two dissimilar metals creates a voltage. This voltage is directly related to the temperature change. The temperature is then converted to an electrical signal which is sent to a control system. The heat sink facilitates the conduction of heat away from the thermocouple and helps keep the temperature stable.

The 3450R82570088 is a bimetallic mechanical temperature sensor which uses two metallic elements that have different thermal expansion characteristics. When the temperature varies, the difference in thermal expansion results in the displacement of a diaphragm. This displacement activates a switch, which sends a signal to a control system. The switch can be adjustable, which allows the temperature of operation to be adjusted to within a range. Typically the range varies between 0 and 40°C.

The 3450R82570088 is easy to install and highly reliable. It has a wide temperature range of up to 250°C and is precise in its readings. It is a great choice for applications that require long-term surveillance of temperatures in a variety of environments. The temperature sensor is capable of providing quick and accurate feedback which can enable a quicker and more effective response from the control system.
