Snap-action thermal protector 5AP

metal

As a world leader in automotive motor protection, Sensata Technologies has developed the smallest bimetal based protection available at the market today, the 5AP. KLIXON® 5AP is developed to operate in wide temperature and current ranges, while providing consistent performance characteristics and excellent reliability. CAD-based design techniques combined with 6-Sigma supported manufacturing lines and the best quality control systems give this product maximum safety and reliability. The 5AP operates as a sensitive power cut-out which is widely used in window lifts, adjuster motors, door locks and various other applications. One protector series covers a broad range of applications, thus providing the flexibility to customize a particular rating based on the specific requirements of universal applications. But let’s find out what really makes the 5AP perform its job as it does: the Sensata KLIXON® control. • Thermal motor protection reacting to both current and temperature • Wide variety of standard thermal configurations • Terminal materal provides trouble-free welding • Eligible for customer partnumber printed on product as well as color-coding • Varying of both bimetal and S-wire resistivity creates a current-time characteristic optimized for each specific application • Unique combination of bimetal disc and resistivity wire guarantees very precise tripping times thus prevents too high motor temperature • Protector selection and application testing by Sensata Technologies laboratory with results in extended report at your service
