Temperature limiter type CZ1 / SZ1

CZ1, SZ1 are current-sensitive switches, automatically resetting, with connecting cables, with or without epoxy

CZ1 is not isolated

SZ1 is insulated with a Mylar®-Nomex® cap

  • Ideal for installation on windings of electric motors or transformers or ballasts
Switching type: Normally closed contact CZ1 Opener SZ1
resetting, defined current sensitive
Insulated: Insulation cap no yes

Functional circuit diagram
The series resistor is used to adjust the current sensitivity, as its heating causes the switch to trip earlier.
