The 3600 Series consists of a single pole, single throw, bimetal snap-action switch available to open or close on temperature rise. These devices are specifically designed and often suited for mounting on products such as printed circuit boards to protect against hazardous temperatures associated with the thermal density of components on backplanes, flexible circuitry and sophisticated time-based circuits. These hermetically-sealed products have gold contacts for logic level switching. They have no power budget and are wave solderable.
