Series 08-81 Probe Style Bi-Metal Temperature Limiting Thermostat

A snap-acting bimetallic disc serves as the actuating element in these rugged, precision thermostats. 

As the temperature reaches the tamper-proof predetermined set point, the disc snaps to provide rapid, positive contact action minimizing RFI and ensuring high reliability. 

These thermostats are individually calibrated and tested to meet both the thermal and the electrical characteristics. 

They resist vibration as well as harsh environments. 

A wide variety of styles: surface sensing and probe types are available, as well as termination and mounting methods to meet your requirements.

Series 08-81 Probe Style low temperature probe-type thermostats are designed specifically for applications where hermeticity and vibration resistance are required. 

When the preset temperature is reached, a snap-acting bimetal disc mounted in the tip of the probe provides fast thermal response and rapid, positive contact action. 

To ensure hermeticity, the probes feature welded, stainless steel construction with glass to metal seals. 

Switch design and construction provides high vibration and shock resistance sufficient to meet MILSTD-202, Method 204, Condition D. 

High contact force and the excellent wiping action of the contacts combine to make the probe suitable for light loads of 100 milliamperes or less.
