TDK Corporation presents the P27 series of EPCOS NTC ICLs with a nominal disk diameter of 27 mm and lead spacing of 7.5 mm, thus extending the portfolio of large NTC ICLs for industrial electronics applications. The high material density of the NTC ICLs enables a volume-efficient, high-performance design with a maximum disk thickness of 7 mm. The P27 series features extremely stable and reliable electrical characteristics. It offers a rated resistance of 0.5 Ω to 10 Ω at 25°C and can handle high currents of up to 30 A, depending on type. Thanks to their very low resistance in the operating state, NTC ICLs offer very low power dissipation in both AC and DC circuits. The large-diameter components of the P27 series are especially suitable for use in large electric motors and drives and all kinds of high watt power supplies as well as in industrial applications, such as welding and plasma cutting equipment. They can be used in soft-start motors, such as those used in vacuum cleaners or electric lawn mowers. The coating material of the P27 series of ICLs is flame retardant and UL 94 V-0 approved. The components are RoHS compatible and UL approved (E69802).
