PEPI JS Series Self-Hold Thermal Cut-Outs

PEPI’s JS series thermal cut-outs combine the benefits of both automatic and manual reset cut-outs, without the disadvantages of either. By incorporating an internal resistor, the self-holding PEPI JS is the same size as the auto-resetting PEPI J, but with a manual-reset function. During normal operation, the load current flows through the contacts of the PEPI JS as with any typical thermal cut-out. When the temperature set-point is reached, the contacts snap open and the current then flows through the model JS’s internal resistor. The resistor then self-heats and provides sufficient heat to stop the contacts from auto-resetting. The PEPI JS can only be reset by switching off the applied voltage and then waiting until it has sufficiently cooled down.
