CAPACITOR TO THERMAL PROTECTOR CONNECTION

THERMAL PROTECTOR

This component (installed in the compressor body) quickly detects any abnormal increase in temperature or excess
current caused by a failure of the electrical or mechanical system or an inappropriate application.
This compressor element consists of a bimetallic disc which, when it detects an excessive temperature in the
compressor or when its integrated resistance becomes too hot, due to an excessive current, bends and disconnects the
compressor, and the disc returns to normal electric contact when it cools off.
