The unique twin-bimetal system of a Matsuo thermostat creates a control that over its long cycle-life, helps to minimises drift and deviation.
The unique twin-bimetal system of a Matsuo thermostat creates a control that over its long cycle-life, helps to minimises drift and deviation.
By avoiding prestressed bimetal, the MQT and M3 series thermostats are capable of switching over 1 million cycles with accuracies as little as +/-1.5K and differentials down to 3+/-1K.
Thus very accurate, long-term control can be guaranteed.
Calibrations from -10 to +110C and loads up to 3A/250V AC (0.8A/48V DC) can be switched in the PBT-encapsulated designs.
N/O, N/C and changeover (SPDT) contacts and various termination options make for a very flexible end product.
Built-in thermal fuses and resistors help to create an ultimate safety control or even a variable thermostat.
