The Sensata Technologies 17AM delivers the maximum protection in the smallest package at an excellent price…

 

The KLIXON 17AM Thermal protector prevents overheating, It’s a miniature, snap acting, thermally operated device that is a proven performer in protection technology. It protects against overheating in:

 

• Shaded Pole Motor
 

• Permanent split capacitor motor
 

• Fluorescent lighting ballasts
 

• HID ballasts
 

• Transformer
 

• Recessed lighting fixtures
 

• Battery packs
 

• Vacuum cleaners
 

• Automotive accessory motors, solenoids, PC boards and other applications

 

 

Here’s why you should be using Sensata Technologies 17AM Thermal Protectors in your product

 

• Miniature size.

• Individually temperature calibrated and checked.

• Positive make and break with Klixon snap action disc.

• Repeatable temperature performance over life.

• Gasket steel case suitable for many impregnation processes.

• Current and temperature sensitivity for maximum design flexibility.

• Wide selection of leads and insulating sleeves.

• Same size and opposite side terminations.

• Cadmium free contacts

 

 

Operation

The 17AM Thermal protector uses the same snap-action principle of other KLIXON protectors. The bimetal disc senses both heat and current from the equipment which 17AM is installed on. When the temperature of the disc reaches a predetermined calibration point, the disc snaps open the contacts, thus breaking the current path. When the equipment returns to a normal operating range, the 17AM protector resets (close circuit) automatically. Construction and Configuration is as shown below.
