Capillary Tube Thermostat Supplier in China
A capillary thermostat works by using a temperature-sensitive fluid in a sealed system to detect changes in the ambient temperature. As the temperature changes, the fluid expands or contracts, applying pressure to a diaphragm or bellows, which mechanically activates a snap-action switch to open or close an electrical circuit, controlling a connected device.
A capillary tube thermostat is a mechanical or electronic device that controls equipment operation by sensing temperature changes through a capillary tube and a temperature-sensing bulb. Key information follows:
Operating Principle
A sealed system consists of a temperature-sensing bulb, a capillary tube, and a bellows/diaphragm, filled with a working fluid (such as Freon). After the temperature-sensing bulb detects changes in ambient temperature, the working fluid pressure is transmitted through the capillary tube to the actuator, actuating the switch contacts. Some models use a microswitch to react to fluid expansion for control, with a temperature range of 0-500°C.
Main Types
Mechanical: Models such as the WJA-400 and KTS-300, with knob adjustment, are suitable for equipment such as electric water heaters and deep fryers, with an adjustment range typically between 30-400°C.
Electronic: Models such as the Honeywell H6062A1000, feature a digital display and are used for precise temperature control.
Application Scenarios
Household Appliances: Water boilers, electric ovens, air conditioners, etc.
Industrial Applications: High and low voltage switchgear, capillary tube radiant air conditioning systems (such as three-constant systems).
Parameters and Features
Capillary tube lengths typically range from 0.7 to 1.8 meters.
Contact configurations include SPST (single-pole, single-throw), with a rated voltage of up to 230V.
Purchasing References
Brands such as YAXUN and Yuduo are available on platforms like JD.com and Taobao. Prices range from $1 to $50, depending on the temperature range and number of pins (e.g., 2-pin vs. 3-pin).
