AMPHENOL ADVANCED SENSORS CL160 Inrush Current Limiter Thermistor

The CL160 is a disc thermistor designed for inrush current limiting applications in switching power supplies, fluorescent lamps, inverters, and motors. It features uninsulated lead wires, a wide operating temperature range from -58°F to 347°F (-50°C to 175°C), and offers low steady resistance with excellent mechanical strength. The thermistor helps prevent component damage during power-up surges by functioning as a solid state resistor that reduces resistance as it heats. Its compact size and options for kinked or straight leads facilitate easy PCB mounting and automatic insertion, ensuring reliable performance in electronic systems.
