Description
Ametherm SL32 4R014 Inrush Current Limiters 22mm 4ohms 14A , Leaded Thermistors
Ametherm’s standard leaded epoxy coated thermistors are manufactured using the same state of the art manufacturing techniques. This results in devices with superior long term reliability characteristics, making them especially suitable for temperature measurement, temperature control and temperature compensation applications.
Features
- Accuracy over a wide temperature range
- High stability over a long life
- Excellent price/performance ratio
A thermistor is a type of resistor whose resistance is dependent on temperature, more so than in standard resistors. The word is a portmanteau of thermal and resistor. Thermistors are widely used as inrush current limiter, temperature sensors (Negative Temperature Coefficient or NTC type typically), self-resetting overcurrent protectors, and self-regulating heating elements. (Positive Temperature Coefficient or PTC type typically).
Thermistors are of two opposite fundamental types:
With NTC, resistance Decreases with temperature to protect against inrush overcurrent conditions. Installed series in a circuit.
With PTC, resistance Increases with temperature to protect against overvoltage conditions. Installed parallel in a circuit.
