REDI-TEMP THERMOSTATS
3100U REDI-TEMP Series
Thermostats can provide either temperature control or over-
temperature protection by breaking electrical contact when a
specified temperature is reached.
Honeywell manufactures a wide range of thermostats for a
variety of potential applications:
• Precision non-hermetic and hermetically-sealed
versions designed to serve infotech, transportation,
telecom, industrial, aircraft, medical equipment, radar,
communications, and electronic control systems needs.
• High reliability military and aerospace versions that meet
the unique needs of the military, aerospace and aviation
industries.
Honeywell can also integrate these thermostats in higher-
value cable assemblies, incorporating wire harness and
connectors.
Also available is a selection of pre-configured REDI-TEMP
Thermostats.

Automatic Reset:
A type of thermostat that will automatically reset at a specific temperature (i.e. a thermostat operates at
65,5°C [150°F] and resets at 48,89°C [120°F]).
Bimetal:
Two dissimilar metals bonded together to form the material for manufacturing thermally-sensitive discs which
actuate the thermostat.
Close on Rise (COR):
Refers to operation of the contacts. When the temperature rises to its set point, the contacts close or
make contact and complete the circuit.
Contact Resistance:
The value of resistance measured between the terminals.
Dielectric Strength:
The value of insulation between two electrically conducting parts. It may be tested by the application of a
predetermined overvoltage for a specified time.
Differential:
The temperature difference between the operate and reset set points, also known as operate and reset.
-
Nominal:
The temperature difference between nominal set points regardless of tolerance.
-
Maximum:
The temperature difference between the operate and reset points.
-
Minimum:
Minimum number of degrees between actual open and closing set points.
Exposure Temperature:
Thermal environment of a device during application operation.
FLA (Full Load Amps):
Current taken from the line by the motor when the motor is yielding the rated hp at the rated voltage
and frequency.
Life Cycles:
The endurance rating of the thermostat expressed in number of operations with stated electrical load applied.
Temperature limit application = open or rise.
LRA (Locked Rotor Amps):
The amount of current the motor can be expected to draw under starting conditions when full
voltage is applied, also known as starting inrush current.
Manual Reset:
A bimetal thermostat with a reset button that must be pressed to reset the contacts.
Open on Rise (OOR):
Refers to the operation of contacts. When the temperature rises to its set point the contacts open,
terminating the circuit.
Overmold:
Encapsulation with an insulating material.
Phenolic:
Thermoset plastic used for the insulating body of the thermostat.
Set Point:
The nominal temperature at which the thermostat operates.
SPST (Single Pole/Single Throw):
A switch with one current path which can be either open or closed.
Tolerance:
The allowable range above and below the set point temperature.
Operate:
Change of state when the thermostat reaches its set point.
Reset:
Change of state when the thermostat returns to its original condition prior to operation.

Standard Temperature Characteristics Tables:
-
Temperatures:
Please consult applications engineering for temperature ranges, tolerances and differentials not noted.
The operating temperature ranges include tolerances.
-
Tolerances:
The ± tolerances given have been established after review of many thermostat applications. Attempts should
be made to establish the widest acceptable tolerance possible.
UL and CSA Approvals:
12,7 mm [0.5 in] thermostats are available with multiple agency approval for incorporation into
equipment.
Fan control applications:
Require thermostat set points to be derated by 20°C from the equivalent temperature limit
application. They also close on rise.

3001/3004 Series Non-Hermetic Thermostats
The 3001/3004 Series is a factory pre-set, single-pole, single-throw thermal switch
available to open and close on temperature rise. The 3001 has a low-profile that
allows it to be used in most applications where a non-hermetic precision thermostat
is required for tight tolerances and the 3004 has a metal sleeve rivet construction.
A metal closure makes the phenolic base dustproof and also provides thermal and
electrical isolation for the silver contacts.
