The thermal protection switch is normally located on A/C compressor housings to prevent compressor damage (overheat) through internal friction. This switch senses compressor case temperature and interrupts the electrical circuit when a predetermined temperature is reached.

Suitable for various motors, fluorescent lamp commutators, transformers, laminators, lamps and lighting, cover sealing machines, and various household appliances.
