Principle
of operation
For this
thermostat, a resistor is built in the thermostat as a heat
generator, and it is structured in such way that the electric
current is changed by the external variable resistor, as if
applying a bias to the operating temperature of the thermostat
to achieve the objective. In other words, if the variable
resistor is adjusted in a way to allow a high current, the
thermostat operates before reaching the preset temperature,
and if the variable resistor is adjusted in a way not to allow
a current, the thermostat will operate at the preset temperature.
As a result, the range between the preset temperature and
the operating temperature, by the variable resistor allowing
maximum current, is the temperature variable range.
The temperature of the generated heat by the built in resistor
determines the variable range. Because of such a design, this
thermostat is provided with a lead wire for control, in addition
to the standard lead wire, resulting a total of three wires.
Caution
This
system will not work in an environment where the heat generated
inside the case is taken away due to some external effect
such as strong wind. Therefore, it is more effective in an
application where the heat stays inside, such as a heating
mat.
Because of the lead time required for experiments and custom
manufacturing, it is not suited to a small lot production.
We will accept purchase orders only if the quantity is 1,000
pieces or more per order.
