The YS11 can be used for on-winding and outside of resin packed motors by clamping or insertion. Since the YS11 has a plastic case, it does not need to be insulated from metal part of the motor.
Ensuring the safety and longevity of electrical motors and appliances is critical for manufacturers and end-users alike. The YS11 Small Thermal Motor Protector, developed by Sensata Technologies, provides a highly reliable, self-resetting thermal protection solution designed to prevent overheating-related failures in various applications, including fans, washing machines, and industrial motors. This innovative thermal cut-out device safeguards both people and property from electrical hazards, making it an indispensable component in modern motor protection.
Key Features and Functionality
The YS11 series offers versatile thermal protection by functioning as:
- Self-resetting thermal cut-out (Type 2B) – Automatically restores operation after cooling down.
- Thermal motor protector (Type 3C) – Designed to protect motors from overheating.
- Thermal protector for ballasts – Ensures the reliability and durability of electrical ballast components.
The YS11 is uniquely engineered to work both on-winding and outside resin-packed motors via clamping or insertion. Its plastic casing eliminates the need for additional insulation, making integration into various designs seamless and efficient.

Reliable Performance for Diverse Applications
The YS11 Small Thermal Motor Protector is designed with Sensata’s renowned thermostat technology, ensuring high performance and durability. Its robust sealing capability allows it to withstand varnish processes and makes it suitable for integration into motor windings.
Different case configurations cater to diverse applications:
- R-Type Case: Developed for resin-packed motors, designed to endure high pressures during the molding process (maximum pressure: 7.5 MPa). However, this case is not suitable for varnish processes due to limited sealing capabilities.
- S-Type Case: Designed for higher ambient temperatures, utilizing PPS housing material (RTI: 240°C) for short-term high-temperature resistance. Like the R-Type, it is not varnish process compatible.
- Standard Case: Compact and well-sealed, making it the preferred option for standard motor protection needs.
