15AM Small Thermal Protector Series  

As world market leader in appliance motor protection Sensata Technologies (produced by Texas Instruments KLIXON ®) builds the 15AM motor protector to meet almost any application in this field. The 15AM its small size, large contact capacity and fast tripping action designed to provide locked rotor and overload protection in a wide variety of motors for industrial and domestic appliances.

Product Details Model: 15AM
Working principle of 15AM thermal protector
The heart of the 15AM thermal protector is the KLIXON ® snap-on bimetal disc. The current passes through the bimetal element. When the current increases or the ambient temperature rises to the set temperature value, the bimetal element moves quickly, opens the contact, and cuts off the circuit. When the device cools down to a safe operating temperature, the KLIXON® bimetal reed quickly resets, the contacts close automatically and power is restored.
15AM class thermal protector industry competitive advantage
  • The 15AM thermal protector is a miniature, quick-acting, thermal-actuating device that uses a special KLIXON ® bimetal disc. It is suitable for direct or indirect overheat protection of electric heating appliances such as motors, transformers, lamps, electrical appliances, instruments and equipment. In the field of thermal protection technology, it is a widely used protection element.
