Thermal Cutoffs Model FWP series Overview The FWP series Thermal Cutoffs provide overtemperature protection by opening the circuit when a preset temperature is reached. This helps prevent equipment damage and reduces fire risk in electronic assemblies and heating applications. Key benefits - Function: Interrupts current at a defined temperature to stop overheating and protect components. - Compatibility: Suitable for use in electronic devices, power supplies, heating elements, and other equipment that requires thermal protection. - Size and form factor: Compact and space efficient; exact dimensions and mounting options vary within the FWP series. Check the specific variant for your application. - Material and construction: Designed for reliable operation under heat with robust construction appropriate for typical electrical environments. - Performance: Delivers consistent tripping behavior at the designated temperature, providing predictable circuit protection. Use scenarios - In a compact coffee maker to shut off the heater if the brew cycle overheats, preventing damage and reducing fire risk. - In a desktop power adapter to prevent overheating during high load, protecting internal components. - In a heating element for small appliances such as a hair dryer or kitchen gadget to guard against overheating during extended use. How to specify - For exact activation temperature, tolerances, lead length, termination type, and mounting method, refer to the FWP series data sheet or contact the supplier.
