  • Bimetal Disc Thermostat APPLICATION NOTES
    Bimetal Disc Thermostat APPLICATION NOTES Operating Principle Bimetal disc thermostats are thermally actuated switches. When the bimetal disc is exposed to its predetermined calibration temperature, it snaps and either opens or closes a set of contacts. This breaks or completes the electrical circuit that has been applied to the thermostat. There are three basic types of thermostat switch actions: • Automatic Reset: This type of control can be built to either open or close its electrical contacts as the temperature increases. Once the temperature of the bimetal disc has returned to the specified reset temperature, the contacts will automatically return to their original state. • Manual Reset: This type of control is available only with electrical contacts that open as the temperature increases. The contacts may be reset by manually pushing on the reset button after the control has cooled below the open temperature calibration. • Single Operation: This type of control is available only with electrical contacts that open as the temperature increases. Once the electrical contacts have opened, they will not automatically reclose unless the ambient that the disc senses drops to a temperature well below room temperature (typically below -31°F). 1 Temperature Sensing & Response Many factors can affect how a thermostat senses and responds to temperature changes in an application. Typical factors include, but are not limited to, the following: • Mass of the thermostat • Switch head ambient temperature. The “switch head” is the plastic or ceramic body and terminal area of the thermostat. It does not include the sensing area. Switch head portion of thermostat Sensing surface of thermostat Figure 1 – Thermostat Construction • Air flow across the sensing surface or sensing area.
