  2. Thermal cutoff - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_cutoff

    A thermal switch (sometimes thermal reset or thermal cutout (TCO)) is a device which normally opens at a high temperature (often with a faint "plink" sound) and re-closes when the temperature drops. The thermal switch may be a bimetallic strip, often encased in a tubular glass bulb to protect it from dust or short circuit. Another common design ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostat

    Pneumatic thermostats typically provide output/ branch/ post-restrictor (for single-pipe operation) pressures of 3-15 psi which is piped to the end device (valve/ damper actuator/ pneumatic-electric switch, etc.). [11] The pneumatic thermostat was invented by Warren Johnson in 1895 [12] soon after he invented the electric thermostat.

    These dampers also may allow adjustment of the "closed" position so that they only obstruct, for example, 75% of the air flow when closed. For vacuum-operated or pneumatically operated zone dampers, the thermostat usually switches the pressure or vacuum on or off, causing a spring-loaded rubber diaphragm to move and actuate the damper.

    A correctly designed thermostat will never be fully open or fully closed while the engine is operating normally, or overheating or overcooling would occur. Double valve engine thermostat Engines which require a tighter control of temperature, as they are sensitive to "Thermal shock" caused by surges of coolant, may use a "constant inlet ...
