Custom Sensors & Technologies (CST)

Utilizes PTC pill materials to energize de–energize motor start windings • Provides inherent start–winding protection • Optimal packaging approach improves efficiency • Used in 120V or 240V applications The Sensata Technologies 8EA motor starter is a low–cost alternative to electro-mechanical relays. It performs the PTC (positive temperature coefficient) solid–state starter function.

The 1NT thermostat is used in a variety of applications throughout the world. They help ensure the correct and safe function of many appliances and HVAC products. Sensata Technologies’ reputation is based on the proven quality and reliability of our products. Our cost effective solutions protect the consumer as well as the manufacturers of these products. Decades of experience and the committment to continuous improvement have resulted in the best thermal protection devices available.

The Klixon® 4344 precision thermostat is constructed with a snap–acting bimetal disc, which serves as the actuating element. As the temperature reaches a pre–determined calibration point, the disc snaps to its reverse curvature producing a crisp, positive switching action inherent to Klixon thermostats. This feature assures reliable, consistent operating temperature over long cycle life. The 4344 thermostat is hermetically sealed, making it an ideal choice for harsh environments. For more information, download the 4344 data sheet (file format: PDF, file size: 700K) or see the page of free drawings available for download.

The Klixon 7AM delivers the maximum protection in the smallest package at an excellent price. It’s the most reliable on the market, backed by the leading innovators in protection technology. Each 7AM temperature rating has a bimetal disc specifically manufactured for that rating. Each device is then calibrated and checked for opening temperature. This results in optimum snap–acting open and reset characteristics necessary to achieve consistent performance over the required cycle life.

The 6766-19 is a manually switchable thermal circuit breaker that is ideally suited for rugged applications. This device is used commonly in applications where a robust, weatherproof switchable breaker is required.

These Klixon® snap–acting thermostat probes are designed to provide reliable, consistent performance over a long cycle life in the harshest of environments. These probes provide excellent shock and vibration resistance and operate as low as -65°F and as high as 550°F and incorporate the reliable Klixon M1 thermostat.
