F20-E06 Encapsulated Thermostats for Electronics from Cantherm.

The CANTHERM F20-E06 will continue to provide the same protection for your products as before, the only change is the name.

The single pole, single throw normally open or normally closed contacts, operate on rise in temperature. The average automatic reset will occur at a temperature approximately 20 - 25 deg. C below the calibrated set point.

The Ryton PPE housing has been designed for very demanding conditions such as high continuous temperatures and high voltage electrical isolation. The G410 housing is UL94-V-0 rated and has a UL long term temperature index of 200 / 220 deg.C plus improved thermal conductivity and reduced thermal expansion. All of these advances produce results which were previously not attainable with conventional compounds.

ADVANTAGES:

The miniature size, high switching capability and versatility of its contacts make the JEDEC TO-220 compatible device ideal for printed circuit board mounting. The F20-E06 is epoxy sealed to withstand wave soldering and board washing operations

APPLICATIONS:

The F20-E06 is ideal to sense the temperature of a surface or of stagnant air in an enclosure and can be supplied for mounting on a printed circuit board or with flexible wire leads for remote installation. Its high temperature resistance and high dielectric strength make it the favored device for protecting heatsinks. Heat sensitive semiconductors and other valuable equipment can be saved from thermal damage by shutting down the power or simply turning on a fan.

DESCRIPTION:

The CANTHERM F20-E06 has been designed to protect today's technology and meet the requirements of tomorrow's innovations. The F20 snap action bimetallic element will respond rapidly and accurately to changes in the temperature of the surface to which it is mounted or the air temperature in an enclosure. The single pole, single throw contacts can be configured as either normally open or normally closed, operating on rise in temperature. The average automatic reset will occur at a temperature approximately 20 - 25°C below the calibrated set point. The housing has been designed for demanding conditions such as high continuous temperatures and high voltage electrical isolation. The "New" PC version is now available with TO-220 style stamped lead-frame leads and are shipped in a 50 piece plastic magazine for ease of insertion and handling.

OPERATING TEMPERATURES:

The F20-E06 is available from 65°C to 160°C with either normally closed or normally open contacts. Increments are 5°C and standard tolerance is ±5°C.

CURRENT SENSIVITY:

The thermostats are not current sensitive at rated currents. At loads above the rated values, up to maximum loading there is self-heating of the current carrying contacts.

CONNECTIONS:

The F20-E06 is available for PC board mount or a variety of flexible wire leads. Standard leads are 6", 24 AWG UL3398 Black up to 150°C and UL1180 Teflon up to the maximum temperature. ADD 3600060 to the part number for stamped lead-frame terminals or specify flexible lead type. Other wire types, gauges and lead lengths available upon request.
