Ceramic PTC Thermistor for Motor Protectors from Germany

A positive temperature coefficient (PTC) ceramic thermistor designed specifically for use in motor overload protectors under HTS 8536.50.40. It increases resistance dramatically with temperature rise to limit current and protect the motor from overheating. Made of ceramic material that reacts electrically to temperature changes.
