KSD301 Temperature Controller (KSD302, KSD303) - Thermal Fuse Temperature Switch
The KSD series thermostat operates on the principle of bimetal discs that snap into action when temperature changes occur. This snap action activates the internal contacts, either completing or breaking the electrical circuit. These temperature controllers feature fixed working temperatures, reliable snap action, minimal flashover, long service life, and reduced radio interference.

KSD301 Auto Reset vs Manual Reset Types
Manual Reset Type
When temperature reaches the action range, the bimetallic strip snaps to disconnect. The circuit remains open until manually reset by pressing the reset button after temperature decreases by 20°C. Requires 4-6N force for reset. Minimum 20.4mm clearance required between reset button and cover for proper operation.
Auto Reset Type
Automatically resets and resumes operation when temperature decreases to the reset point after activation.
