The switchgear of type series 01 is fixed in a positive lock and is self-aligning

between the floor of a conductive housing (1) and a contact cap which is made

of steel (2) and insulated from it, plus an integrated stationary silver contact (6)

which closes the housing like a button cell. At the same time, the spring snap-in

disc (3) which forms the current transfer element bears the movable contact

(4) and discharges the flow of current and self-heating from the bimetallic disc

(5) by exercising consistent, steady contact pressure. The bimetallic disc (5) is

held on the one movable contact (4) which sticks out through this without

having to be welded or fixed. As such, it can continually work (exposed) and

only reacts to the ambient temperature in the device to be protected. When

the rated switching temperature is reached, the bimetallic disc (5) snaps into its

inverted position and pushes the spring snap-in disc (3) downwards. The contact is abruptly opened and the temperature rise of the device to be protected

is disrupted. If the ambient temperature now falls, the bimetallic disc (5) snaps

back into its start position when reaching the defined reset temperature and

the contact is closed again.
