This catalog features Carling Technologies current line of thermal circuit protectors, from 3 to 60 amps, which offer reliable, cost effective circuit protection. Thermal circuit protectors utilize a bimetallic strip electrically in series with the circuit. The heat generated by the current during an overload deforms the bimetallic strip and trips the breaker. Thermal protectors have a significant advantage over fuses in that they can be reset after tripping. They can also be used as the main ON/OFF switch for the equipment being protected.
