Out of Stock

The KSD9700/BK05-BB1D is a metallic-shell, snap-action thermal switch rated for 5A at 250V AC/DC, providing reliable over-temperature protection by opening its normally closed contacts at a factory-set 50°C threshold. It is designed for direct integration into electrical circuits for appliances, power supplies, and industrial controls.

Features

  • Metallic shell construction for robust thermal conduction and durability.
  • Normally closed (NC) contacts open automatically at the 50°C setpoint to cut power.
  • Rated for 5A switching current at up to 250V AC/DC.
  • Compact design with integrated 7cm lead wires for easy installation.
  • Bimetallic snap-action mechanism ensures reliable, repeatable operation.

Description

The KSD9700/BK05-BB1D is a bimetallic disc-type thermal protector housed in a metallic shell for optimal heat transfer and mechanical strength. Its internal snap-action mechanism provides a Sharp Microelectronics, positive break of the normally closed contacts when the surrounding temperature reaches the calibrated 50°C trip point, effectively disconnecting the load to prevent overheating. The switch resets automatically once the temperature cools below the setpoint.

This device is engineered for direct series connection within a circuit’s power line. The metallic housing ensures rapid response to ambient temperature changes, making it suitable for protecting transformers, motors, solenoids, and heating elements in enclosed spaces. Its simple two-wire interface (via the 7cm leads) facilitates straightforward integration without complex electronics.

Key Features

  • Bimetallic snap-disc actuator for precise and repeatable thermal response.
  • Metallic shell housing ensures excellent thermal conductivity and physical robustness.
  • Normally closed (NC) contact configuration for fail-safe power interruption.
  • Rated for 5A @ 250V AC/DC, suitable for a wide range of electrical loads.
  • Factory pre-set to a fixed 50°C (±5°C typical) trip temperature.
  • Compact form factor (approx. 9 x 7 x 1 cm) for space-constrained installations.
  • Integrated 7cm insulated lead wires for simplified wiring.
  • Automatic reset function upon cooling for maintenance-free operation.

Applications

  • Over-temperature protection for small motors, transformers, and solenoids in appliances.
  • Thermal cutoff safety device in power supplies, battery chargers, and LED drivers.
  • Heating element protection in coffee makers, soldering irons, and thermal packaging.
  • Temperature monitoring and safety interlock in industrial control cabinets and enclosures.
  • Preventive safety component in automotive electronics and 12V/24V DC systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the contact configuration and how does this thermal switch work?

This switch uses normally closed (NC) contacts. At room temperature, the circuit is closed. When the temperature around its metallic shell reaches the factory-set 50°C trip point, an internal bimetallic disc snaps open, breaking the circuit to disconnect the load. It automatically resets and closes the contacts once the temperature cools sufficiently, typically around 35-45°C.

What are the electrical ratings and how should I wire it?

The switch is rated for 5 Amperes at up to 250 Volts AC or DC. It is wired in series with the load on the live or positive line. The two 7cm lead wires are not polarized; either wire can connect to the power source and the other to the load. Ensure connections are secure and insulated to handle the rated current.

Is the 50°C trip temperature adjustable?

No, the KSD9700/BK05-BB1D model has a fixed, factory-calibrated trip temperature of 50°C. It is not user-adjustable. For different setpoints, you would need to select a thermal switch model with the corresponding pre-set temperature rating.

What is the typical lifespan and operating environment for this switch?

The bimetallic snap-action mechanism is designed for long-term reliability, typically rated for thousands of cycles. It operates within an ambient range of approximately -20°C to +120°C. The metallic shell provides good durability but should be protected from direct moisture immersion, corrosive gases, or excessive mechanical stress for optimal lifespan.
