Inrush current is defined as the high peak or surge current that a device first draws from a power source when power is initially applied. Inrush current limiters (ICLs) are a type of component designed to solve this issue. SL32 0R230 is part of the ICLs family, known for its outstanding working principle.

The SL32 0R230 is a fast-acting thermal cut-off device installed in power supplies which serve as over-current protection and quick response against inrush current. It has a small compact size and offers a high degree of current protection, adjustable between 0.2A and 0.35A. This makes the device suitable for a range of different applications in consumer electronics, mobile phone charger, and gaming machines.

The working principle of SL32 0R230 can be divided into two stages. The first stage is that of a resistor, which limits the amount of current that is allowed to reach the circuit electric components. This helps to reduce the surge when the power source is initially applied. During this stage, the resistor is connected directly to the power source and limits the rise of inrush current to a safe level.

The second stage of the SL32 0R230 is that of a cutter. This works by using a bimetallic strip which is attached to the resistor. This strip is designed to be heat responsive and will act as a switch as the level of heat increases. A pre-set temperature is required before the switch can be activated. When this temperature is reached, the circuit is shorted and the current that would have passed is cut off.

This two-stage design allows the SL32 0R230 to function quickly and accurately. When the power source is initially applied, the ICL prevents the current from exceeding the pre-set level. When the current reaches the pre-set level, the ICL cuts off the current flow immediately, new limiting its initial surge. This ensures that current is only flowing when it is absolutely necessary.

The SL32 0R230 ICL is suitable for appliances, power supplies, and the automotive industry. In these applications, the ICL can be used to protect motherboards, hard drives and displays from excessive current. It can also be used to protect power supplies from the danger of burning out due to current overload. The flexible and adjustable current protection range of the SL32 0R230 makes it ideal for applications in a wide range of products.
