Introducing examples of applications in home appliances, such as DC brushless fans, which are essential for cooling OA equipment!
We will introduce examples of the use of PTC thermistors, which are utilized in various fields as self-regulating heaters and to prevent overcurrent caused by circuit board troubles.
In home appliances, they are used for starting small motors in air conditioners, fans, vacuum cleaners, and refrigerators, as well as to attenuate overcurrent (lock current) that occurs during motor locking, thereby preventing thermal loss in the motor.
They also contribute to enhancing the reliability of DC brushless fans, which are essential for cooling OA equipment. Additionally, leveraging the self-temperature control characteristics of PTC thermistors, they are widely used as heating elements in household appliances such as hair dryers.
[Usage Examples]
- For starting small motors in air conditioners, fans, vacuum cleaners, and refrigerators
- To attenuate overcurrent generated during motor locking and prevent thermal loss in the motor
- To enhance the reliability of DC brushless fans essential for cooling OA equipment
- As heating elements in household appliances such as hair dryers
- Built into mobile phones and used as components to respond to circuit abnormalities
