Known as a thermal fuse, thermal link, or TCO, the MICROTEMP® thermal cutoff provides protection against overheating by interrupting an electrical circuit when operating temperatures exceed the rated temperature of the cutoff.  \nMICROTEMP® Features:  \n• One-shot operation cuts off electrical power  \n• Current interrupt capacity up to 25 amps @ 250VAC  \n• Low resistance  \n• Compact size  \nOperating Principle of the MICROTEMP® TCO  \nThe active trigger mechanism of the thermal cutoff is an exclusively formulated, electrically nonconductive pellet. Under normal operating temperatures, the solid pellet holds spring-loaded contacts closed.  \nWhen a predetermined temperature is reached, the pellet melts, allowing the compression spring to relax. The trip spring then slides the contact away from the lead and the circuit is opened (see figures 1 and 2) .  \nAfter a MICROTEMP® thermal cutoff opens a circuit, the TCO needs to be replaced. This replacement procedure must include correction of the fault condition before the product is operated again.  \nMICROTEMP® G4, G6 & G7 Series TCO  \nTHERMAL PELLET  \nCOMPRESSION SPRING  \nTRIP SPRING  \nCERAMIC BUSHING  \nEPOXY SEAL  \nBefore Operation  \nCASE AND LEAD ASSEMBLY  \nDISCS  \nSTAR CONTACT  \nISOLATED LEAD  \nGrey area shows current path  \nAfter Operation  \nCASE AND LEAD ASSEMBLY  \nCOMPRESSION SPRING  \nTRIP SPRING  \nCERAMIC BUSHING  \nEPOXY SEAL  \nDISCS  \nSTAR CONTACT  \nISOLATED LEAD  \nGrey area shows opened or broken current path  \nFigure 1  \nMICROTEMP® G5 & G8 Series TCO  \nTHERMAL PELLET  \nCOMPRESSION SPRING  \nTRIP SPRING  \nCERAMIC BUSHING  \nEPOXY SEAL  \nBefore Operation  \nCASE AND LEAD ASSEMBLY  \nDISCS  \nSTAR CONTACT  \nFLOATING CONTACT  \nISOLATED LEAD  \nGrey area shows current path  \nAfter Operation  \nCOMPRESSION SPRING  \nTRIP SPRING  \nCERAMIC BUSHING  \nEPOXY SEAL  \nCASE AND LEAD ASSEMBLY  \nDISCS  \nSTAR CONTACT  \nFLOATING CONTACT  \nISOLATED LEAD  \nGrey area shows opened or broken current path  \nFigure 2  \nMICROTEMP® Thermal Cutoffs:  \nTYPES & SPECIFICATIONS  \nMICROTEMP® thermal cutoffs are available in a range of temperatures and electrical ratings to meet application requirements (see Microtemp® Operating Temperature Summary and Electrical Rating Summary on page 4). There are 5 primary types of thermal cutoffs available. Standard dimensions of each TCO series are shown on page 4.  \nG Series: This “Global” series or G designation represents the world standard in thermal cutoffs. MICROTEMP® TCOs were the first chemical-pellet spring-type TCO ever developed and continue to bethe thermal cutoff of choice for over 35 years.  \nE Series: This new “Environmentally” friendly series holds Agency recognition equivalent to the G series and has been designed to comply with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (ROHS) Directive (2002/95/EC) . None of the substances specified in this Directive have been intentionally incorporated into the E-series products.  \nG4 Series  \nRated for continuous operating currents up to 10 amps @ 250VAC (15 amps @ 120VAC, 5 amps @ 24VDC), the G4 series MICROTEMP® TCO is the industry standard for over-temperature protection. The G4 series is applied to millions of appliances and personal care products each year, providing reliable back-up protection for temperature controlling thermostats and other over-temperature conditions. The G4 series is also widely applied in office machines, portable heaters and industrial equipment as a thermal safeguard.  \nG5 Series  \nDesigned for higher voltage and current applications than the G4, the G5 series MICROTEMP® TCO is rated for operating currents up to 20 amps @ 250VAC and 277 VAC (25 amps @ 120VAC) . Similar in appearance to the G4 series, the G5 series has a different internal construction","cbCaicZbkdSaKLIB","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicZbkdSaKLIB","pdf",2485006,18,"English","# Introduction\n## Upper Limit Temperature Protection\n## MICROTEMP Features and Operating Principle\n# MICROTEMP G4, G5, G6, G7 & G8 Series TCO\n## Types & Specifications\n## Operating Temperature Summary","[{\"question\":\"How does a MICROTEMP® thermal cutoff protect against overheating?\",\"answer\":\"It interrupts the electrical circuit when operating temperatures exceed the cutoff’s rated temperature, cutting off electrical power in a one-shot operation.\"},{\"question\":\"Why must a MICROTEMP® TCO be replaced after it opens?\",\"answer\":\"After opening, the TCO is a one-shot device, so the circuit remains interrupted until the thermal cutoff is replaced.
