TRS5-10BLR00 is a TRS5 series thermal reed switch. It is a highly reliable, precise temperature-sensitive switch ideal for energy conservation. Its unique proprietary design features a magnet and a temperature-sensing soft ferromagnetic substance called Thermorite®. The material’s magnetic flux density decreases as the temperature increases turning it into a paramagnetic substance at the Curie temperature. Typical applications include temperature detection and overheat monitoring of electric appliances, heat-retention heater control for rice cookers, defrost for air conditioners and vending machines, roll heater temperature control for copying machines, radiator water temperature detection for automotive electric fan control.
