Description

The KSD9700/BK05-BB1D is a bimetallic disc-type thermal protector housed in a metallic shell. It operates on a snap-action principle: when the ambient temperature around its sensing head reaches the calibrated 50°C setpoint, the internal bimetallic disc deflects, mechanically opening the normally closed contacts to break the circuit. This action provides a failsafe, one-time or automatic-reset (depending on variant) interruption to protect equipment like transformers, motors, heaters, and power supplies from thermal damage.

Its metallic housing ensures efficient heat transfer from the protected component to the internal bimetallic element, offering a fast response. The device is designed for direct series connection in the load or coil circuit, requiring no external power or signal conditioning. With a 10A current rating, it is capable of handling significant inductive or resistive loads commonly found in industrial and consumer appliance applications.

Key Features

  • Fixed Temperature Protection: Precisely calibrated bimetallic actuator trips at 50°C (±5°C typical tolerance) to open the circuit.
  • High Current Capacity: Rated for 10A at 250V AC, providing robust protection for motors, heating elements, and power circuits.
  • Durable Metallic Enclosure: Shell construction offers excellent thermal conductivity, mechanical strength, and resistance to physical damage.
  • Normally Closed (NC) Configuration: Contacts are closed under normal conditions, opening only upon overtemperature, ensuring fail-safe operation.
  • Compact & Pre-Wired: Small form factor with integrated 7cm insulated lead wires for straightforward soldering or terminal block connection.
  • Wide Application Compatibility: Suitable for integration into AC mains voltage systems and various electronic assemblies requiring thermal cutoff.

Applications

  • Over-temperature protection in power supplies, battery chargers, and transformer coils.
  • Safety cutoff for heating elements in coffee makers, soldering irons, and small appliances.
  • Thermal protection for AC motors, fan coils, and small pump windings.
  • Integration into industrial control cabinets to guard against enclosure overheating.
  • Embedded safety device in lighting ballasts and power conversion equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the trip temperature and reset behavior of this KSD9700 switch?

This KSD9700/BK05-BB1D variant has a fixed trip temperature of 50°C. It is a snap-action, normally closed (NC) bimetallic switch. Upon reaching the setpoint, the contacts open to break the circuit. Many KSD9700 types are automatic-reset, meaning the contacts will close again once the temperature cools below the reset point (typically a few degrees below the trip point), restoring the circuit automatically.

Can this switch handle 10A at 250V AC on an inductive load like a motor?

Yes, the 10A 250V AC rating is typically suitable for resistive and inductive loads like small motors or transformers. However, for highly inductive loads, consider the inrush current. It is always prudent to derate slightly for inductive applications or use it in conjunction with other protective devices like fuses for optimal safety and longevity.

How do I install and wire this temperature control switch?

Installation is straightforward. The switch has two lead wires. Connect it in series with the load (e.g., heater, motor) you wish to protect on the live (hot) side of the AC mains or the positive side of a DC circuit. Ensure the metallic sensing head is in good thermal contact with the component or area you need to monitor. The switch requires no external power; it operates purely on the thermal deflection of its internal bimetallic element.

What is the physical size and what do the head dimensions refer to?

The overall package dimensions are approximately 9cm x 7cm x 1cm. The 'Head Dimensions' of 2.0mm x 0.8mm x 0.2mm refer to the very small metallic sensing disc or capsule at the end of the switch body. This is the active bimetallic element that responds to temperature changes. The main cylindrical body is larger, housing the snap-action mechanism and terminal connections.
