Bimetal Snap-Action Thermostat Endurance Tester – IEC 60730 Test Equipment

IEC 60730 Bimetal Snap-action Thermostat Endurance Tester

The Bimetal Snap-Action Thermostat Endurance Tester is a specialized apparatus designed to evaluate the mechanical and electrical lifespan of automatic reset, temperature-sensitive bimetal snap-action thermostats. Manufactured in accordance with IEC 60730-1, the equipment is used for endurance testing of clicson-type thermostats in household appliances and similar electrical devices, helping manufacturers verify long-term reliability and safety compliance.

Testing Principle

KingPo IEC 60730 Test Equipment Overall View

• The tester operates three independent stations simultaneously. Each station mounts a bimetal thermostat on a fixture and subjects it to repeated heating and cooling cycles under controlled temperature and load current. The system automatically records the number of switching operations while maintaining stable temperature and monitoring current flow until the preset cycle count is reached.
