Description Leads can be welded to Pin tYPe TypicalCrossSectionView

The Klixon 4344 Precision therm-
ostat is constmcted with a snaP-
acting bi-metal disc which serrr'es
as the actuating element. As the
temperature reaches a Predeter-
mined calibration point, the disc
snaps to its reverse curyature
producing the crisP, Positive

To meet a wide range of aPPlica- review your parameters and NarrowDifferentialControl

tion requirements, Klixon Probe
t;pe thermostat Packages are
available in a variety of sizes,
configurations and thermal
characteristics.
This publication shows three
basic packages of immersion
probes suitable for fluid temPera-
ture sensing. ManY other variet-
ies and confrgurations are avail-
able to give design engineers
complete versatility. If none of
these standard designs meet Your
need, our application engineering
group is readily available to
custom design a device to satisSr
your application.
ExtremeTemPerature
Protection
Constant speed drives, aircraft
refrigeration systems, food
processing equiPment, and
missile hydraulic systems often
require protection from or indica-
tion of extreme high or low
temperatures.
These thermostat Probes accu-
rately open and close with a
narrow 2'to 8'F differential
providing close temPerature
control in applications ranging
from environmental to Power tube
coolant systems.
Fast ResPonse
Quick responseto raPidlYchang-
ing temperature is a virtue of the
low thermal mass seriesProbes.
The unique Klixon SBT "TinY-
Stat" is locatedat the toP ofthe
probe for ultimate sensitivitY.

them the ideal choice in applications where size andweight are critical. This small envelope design translates
to a low thermal mass which yields one more key feature, anextrernely fast therrnal response.

Description
The Klixon Ml precision therm-
ostat is constructed with a snap-
acting bi-metal disc which serves
as the actuating element. As the
temperature reaches a predeter-
mined calibration point, the disc
snaps to its reverse curvature
producing the crisp, positive
switching action inherent to
Klixon thermostats. This feature
assures reliable, consistent
operating temperature over long
cycle life. The standard thermo-
stat is copper-nickel plated with
silver contacts. Other plating
frnishes are available upon
request. GoId plated contacts can
be furnished for the electrical
loads listed in the following table
to assure reliable circuit switch-
ing under low wattage conditions.
Gold plated contacts are not
suitable for heavier loads.

Klixon 4286 Thermostats are
snap-acting, disc-type controls
designed to control temperatures
within narrow limits. They are
used as control or warning
devices for applications in guided
missiles, aircraft controls,
electronic circuit components,
servo-mechanisms, gyroscopes,
aerial cameras, crystal ovens,
surface heaters, computers, etc.
The Klixon snap-acting disc and
fine silver electrical contacts are
mounted in a glass-filled alkyd
base. The complete assembly is
seated with epoxy into a stainless
steel cup. The disc is electrically
insulated and coupled with a
radiating element for fast tem-
perature response.

Klixon inherent motor protection
for aircraft prevents hazards
beyond the control of the manu-
facturer such as sustained
overload and excessive tempera-
tures. Since the protecting devices
are sensitive to both temperature
and current, they protect against
a variety of abnormal conditions
while allowing maximum motor
output before shutdown. Motor
life is extended by limiting
damaging temperatures to the
designed level.
Description
The inherent protector is basi-
cally a bimetallic thermostat with
a built-in heating element, install-
ed in series with the motor
winding.
The actuating element of the
protectoris the Klixon snap-
acting thermal disc. The built-in
heaters simulate winding temP-
eratures causedby increasesin
current. The protectorprovides
crisp, positive switching when the
specifiedtrip current is sustained
for a specifiedduration, at room
temperature.The devicewill also
actuate with an excessiveambi-

ent temperature condition. Alone,
the disc protects against excessive
ambient temperature and the
heaters protect against excessive
current increases as experienced
during locked rotor conditions.
Together, the heaters and disc
protect against any combination
of overload and ambient conditions.
Standard ratings are available in
approximately 57o current stePs
at ultimate trip for motors with
maximum allowable tempera-
tures of 120"C, 150"C,175"Cand
200"C. Maximum current is based
