F20B105051ZA0060 Application Field and Working Principle

Temperature Sensors - Thermostats - Mechanical

F20B105051ZA0060 is a type of temperature sensor widely used in thermostats, particularly mechanical thermostats, in order to detect temperature variations. Developed by ABB, it is composed of two basic components which are a metal contact and a temperature-sensitive bimetallic strip. This type of sensor has been mainly used in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) sector, due to its easy installation and low cost.

The working principle of the F20B105051ZA0060 is quite straightforward. Basically, it consists of two metal strips with different thermal expansion coefficients which are joined together. As the temperature changes, the two strips expand and each of them bends in a different direction. The force generated when the two strips cross acts upon a contact which is placed in the center of the bimetallic strip. Depending on the temperature, it is possible to open or close the contact thus providing the ON or OFF option to a switch or other type of circuit.

This type of sensor has several advantages; it is reliable, fast-responding and relatively easy and cheap to install. Furthermore, it is suitable for a wide range of temperature values when compared to other sensors like thermocouples. This makes the F20B105051ZA0060 a popular choice for controlling temperature in domestic and industrial applications.

The applications of F20B105051ZA0060 are numerous. The most common one is controlling the temperature of refrigerators or freezers, as it allows to keep the temperature within a certain range. These sensors can also be used in air conditioners, heat pumps and boilers for controlling the temperature. Besides, the F20B105051ZA0060 can be utilized in medical and scientific equipment, which require accurate temperature readings and control.

To conclude, the F20B105051ZA0060, is a type of temperature sensor that operates by detecting changes in temperature using a bimetallic strip. It is mainly used in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning applications and finds many applications in domestic and industrial sectors. Furthermore, its small size and low cost make it a popular choice for domestic and commercial installations.
