5AP Motor Protector

Motor Protectors

As a world leader in automotive motor protection, Sensata Technologies has developed the smallest bimetal based protection available at the market today, the 5AP. KLIXON® 5AP is developed to operate in wide temperature and current ranges, while providing consistent performance characteristics and excellent reliability. CAD-based design techniques combined with 6-Sigma supported manufacturing lines and the best quality control systems give this product maximum safety and reliability. The 5AP operates as a sensitive power cut-out which is widely used in Window-Lifts, Adjuster-Motors, Door- Locks and various other applications. One protector series covers a broad range of applications, thus providing the flexibility to customize a particular rating based on the specific requirements of universal applications. But let’s find out what really makes the 5AP perform its job as it does: the Sensata KLIXON® control.
