Temperature measurement, sensor technology and Overheating protection in industry and household
Automation, electrification and miniaturization permeate almost all areas ofalmost all areas of life today. This is associated with more and more electric drives, more small and miniature motors, and also more electrically operated electrically powered heating elements - in industrial applications as well as in products for for the end consumer. Integrated temperature sensors from Microtherm Sentronic protect these from overheating.

Temperature protection
and temperature measurement
for small motors
electric motors:
Mini temperature sensor PT1000
Application
- Very small sensor diameter for installation in the stator slot of small electric motors
- Application in synchronous and asynchronous motors, often electronically speed controlled
- Robust design on mini printed circuit board as carrier of the PT1000 sensor chip
Project data
- Development, prototype construction and planning of tools and equipment at Microtherm Germany
- Series production at Microtherm China
- Various trial and test cycles
By miniaturization we bring the temperature measurement closer to the potential heat source. This allows the sensor to respond faster to temperature changes. The faster response to temperature changes allows the manufacturers of the high performance motors to be protected to push the limits of the load capacity higher and increase the peak performance of the motors.
