PTC Thermistors for Temperature Control

This document describes PTC thermistors from Sensortechnik GmbH. - PTC thermistors are ceramic resistors that increase in resistance as temperature increases. They are used to monitor limit temperatures in electrical motor and transformer windings. - The MF1 series features miniature construction, resistance below 100 ohms, operating temperatures up to 190°C, and customized solutions. - Technical specifications include voltage tolerance, resistance values at different temperatures, response time, insulation strength, and more. Dimensions and ordering information is also provided.

The characteristic curve points are no-load resistance values.
Self-heating has to be avoided. If necessary, pulsating voltage
has to be worked with. At temperatures below -20°C the PTC
thermistor is able to accept resistance values exceeding
250 Ω.
