Electronic data processing
DESCRIPTION
These directly heated thermistors have a positive
temperature coefficient and are primarily intended for
overload protection. They consist of a metallized ceramic
disk with two tinned brass or copper clad steel leads reflow
soldered to it and coated with a high temperature silicone
lacquer. Leadless disks and leaded disks without coating are
available on request.
MOUNTING
The PTC Thermistors are suitable for processing on
automatic insertion equipment.
Typical soldering
235 °C; duration: 5 s (Pb-bearing)
245 °C, duration: 5 s (Lead (Pb)-free)
Resistance to soldering heat
260 °C, duration: 10 s max.
MARKING
Only the grey lacquered thermistors with a diameter of
8.5 mm to 20.5 mm are marked with BC, R
