    THERMAL PROTECTION Thermal detection devices protect the machine from excessive operating temperatures. Excessive temperatures may be caused by a lack of cooling air or operating the machine beyond the duty cycle and output rating. If excessive operating temperatures should occur, the yellow LED will light and the detection device will prevent output voltage or current. These detection devices are self-resetting once the machine cools sufficiently.
