Thermal Switch Products – Engineered for Reliability

A thermal cutoff switch is really a reference to an application that “cuts off” or breaks/opens a switch contact at a certain temperature. CPI thermals are used in this way in hundreds of different applications to prevent overtemperature conditions from developing in a wide variety of equipment. For more information see our discussion of thermal cutoff switches here.

CPI’s line of Rod & Tube thermal switches are capable of detecting set points up to 1850F (1010C) but they can tolerate momentary overshoots up to 2000 degrees farenheit.

A Thermal Overload Switch is typically used to prevent electrical circuits and motors from overheating. In more sophisticated applications like jet engines, or large generators and fuel cells, a variety of CPI switches have been used in these kind of applications where more extreme conditions and temperature ranges are encountered. You can see our more detailed discussion of thermal overload applications here.

Yes we can do that. As part of our snapstat line of thermal switches, our S-Series switch can be programmed with a dual setpoint.

A temperature switch is a more consumer oriented name for a Thermal Switch, they are basically referring to the same thing. See our discussion of temperature switches here.
