電機啟動型熱敏電阻器
馬達啟動用正溫度係數熱敏電阻器,只要用於電冰箱、空調馬達啟動、空調變頻機啟動、馬達過熱保護等。
工作原理:馬達啟動器是利用PTC陶瓷的電流-時間特性,當電壓施加于PTCR時,開始有大電流I流過,經過一定時間ts后,隨着PTCR溫度的升高,電阻值迅速增大,導致電流也急劇下降,這段時間ts可以從0.1s到几秒,其值取決于PTCR的熱容量、電阻值、熱耗散條件、負載電阻及工作電壓,當外電壓撤銷時,PTCR將冷卻至常溫電阻值。利用這個原理,在家用電冰箱和空調機等電器馬達啟動上得到了廣氾的使用。應該說明,當使用PTCR的延遲性能時,如果要重複同一延遲時間,應間隔一定時間tr(即所謂的恢復時間),使PTCR恢復到原始狀態溫度,所以應避免立即重複動作,否則PTCR不能提供持續的大電流,使壓縮機無法正常啟動工作,會導致壓縮機燒燬。
電機在啟動時,要克服本身的慣性,同時還要克服負載的反作用力(如冰箱壓縮機啟動時必須克服制冷劑的反作用力),因此電機啟動時需要較大的電流和轉矩。當轉動正常后,為了節約能源,需要的轉矩又要大幅度下降。給電機加一組輔助線圈,只在啟動時工作,正常后它就斷開。將PTC熱敏電阻串聯在啟動輔助線圈, 啟動后PTC熱敏電阻進入高阻態切斷輔助線圈,正好可以達到這種效果.
產品優勢:採用帶有PTCR的啟動電路具有經濟、可靠、電路簡單等特點,優于過去的重錘式啟動電路,它具有無觸點、低噪聲、高可靠、長壽命等特點。
PTC Thermistors for Motor-Starting
Applications
Motor-starting PTC Thermistors are mainly used in fridge and air-conditioner motor-starting, air-conditioner transducer-starting, motor over-heating protection.
Working Theories
Motor-starter is a machine that makes use of the PTC pottery current-time feature. When PTCR is put on by pressure, the heavy current begins to pass through, and after certain time, with the increasing of the PTC temperature, resistance value goes up sharply and cause current to fall down suddenly. During this time, ts can change from 0.1s to several seconds. The specific time depends on PTCR’s heating capacity, resistance value, heating dissipation condition, overloaded resistance and operating voltage. When the outer electricity pressure retreats, PTC will become cool and alter to normal resistance. Making use of this theory, PTC is applied extensively in household refrigerator and air-conditioner motor-starter and so on. One point should be noticed that when using the delay-time feature of PTC, we should make the PTC recover to its original temperature every certain time tr(That is what we called recovering time). So sudden repeated movements should be avoided, otherwise PTC cannot provide constant heavy current, and the compressor cannot start or work normally, which will cause the compressor burnt.
When the electricity motor is being started, it has to overcome its inertia and the counterforce of loading (eg: Its counterforce must be overcome when refrigerator compressor starts), so starting the electricity motor needs relatively heavy current and torque. When it runs normally, and the torque needed has to be brought down to save energy. Give motor electricity a circle assistant loop, and it works only when the motor starts and it will break up after the current goes regularly. This effect can be reached by connecting the PTC Thermistor in series in starting assistant loop and cutting off the assistant loop when PTCR enters the state of high resistance.
Advantages
The starting circuit with PTC owns the feature of being economic, reliable, simple which is better than the heavy hammer starting circuit Additionally, It has the characteristics of being contactless, lower noise, high reliability, long service and so on.
