The KSD302 is a bimetallic disc thermostat, a fundamental component for over-temperature protection and basic temperature regulation. When the ambient temperature reaches its calibrated set point of 80°C, the bimetallic disc snaps, mechanically opening the normally closed contacts to break the circuit. This action provides a failsafe cutoff for heating elements, motors, or transformers without requiring external power.
Constructed with a ceramic body, the switch offers high dielectric strength and resistance to tracking, making it suitable for mains-voltage applications. The robust design ensures consistent performance across its operating temperature range, with a typical hysteresis of a few degrees Celsius for stable cycling. It is a cost-effective and reliable solution for applications requiring a simple, self-contained thermal cutoff.
