Matsuo bimetal thermostats for freeze and frost protection and anti-condensation applications

Precision Matsuo Thermostats

The Matsuo MQT and M2/M3 series bimetal thermostats use a unique internal structure that offers a combination of tolerance, differential and repeatability that is un-matched in the thermostat industry. The twin bimetal system minimises calibration drift and ensures a long contact life from 100k - 1m cycles depending on the applied load. They are ideal as frost protection thermostats, anti-freeze thermostats or anti-condensation thermostats especially in applications requiring long-term stability situated in remote locations.

Matsuo thermostats are individually set and then sealed within a PBT plastic housing giving excellent environmental resistance. Calibrations from -10°C to +110°C are available with setting tolerances down to ±1.5K and differentials (hysteresis) down to 3K. AC loads up to 3A(250V) or 5A(125V) and DC loads up to 1.3A/24V or 0.8A/48V can be switched.

The Matsuo thermostat range also offers versions with S.P.D.T. ("change-over") contacts, built-in thermal fuses or built-in resistors.

MQT Thermostats The smallest Matsuo thermostat, capable of switching upto 1.3A/250VAC or 2A/125VAC. Single point fixing, plug-in connectors, built-in thermal fuses and double-sealed (water-proof) variants are all available.   Click for more info	M2/M3 Thermostats Larger thermostat enables higher switching capacities upto 3A/250VAC or 5A/125VAC. Dual fixing points with change-over (S.P.D.T.) contact options available. Low-profile M2 thermostats also available.   Click for more info
MQT8H/M2F Thermostats These are special thermostat versions that offer water-proof seals or built-in thermal fuses for ultimate circuit protection.   Click for more info
