Tubular heating elements liquids | Manually resettable thermal cut-offs

Tubular element with mounted thermal fuse

The tubular heating elements with dia. 8.5 mm can be equipped with a thermostat and a resettable thermal cut-off, mounted at the end of electrical tubular heating element. Heating elements with mounted thermal cut-off and/or thermostat are approved by SEMKO, VDE and UL, particularly suitable for liquid heating. To determine the breaking temperature of the resettable cut-off it is advisable to measure the temperature under normal conditions and in intended application. The breaking temperature is recommended to be at least 25-30°C above the maximum temperature of the thermal cut-off at normal operation.

Tubular Elements | Benefits

  • Compact design
  • No extra cable connection is required
  • Premounted inside the element
  • Reliable function, power is cut close to the heating source
  • Low total cost for the function
