Check and reset overload relay in starter. Check heater rating against motor nameplate current rating. Check motor load. If motor has a manual reset thermal protector, check whether tripped. 

Check for loose connections to line, to fuses, and to control. Check if thermal protector tripped, fuses blown, check overload relay, starter, and pushbuttons. 

Thermal protectors. They protect the hair from different types of drying. 

The thermal stability of phase-coherent protectorate of hole pairs, which are dynamically ordered on collectivized zigzag orbitals, is defined by the formula Tc Pip) = CpD r,ho o/ 2kB 2Tj +Tf)] [5,6]. Here, the parameter C <1 takes into account the compatibility of given BS with the potential extra-relief from dopant ions, ks is the Boltzmann constant, ficOo 2.06 eV is the binding energy of... 

Use Protector against UV radiation, thermal stabilizer, antioxidant, chelation of metals. 

Another common reason to add a filler to a polymer is to increase either electrical conductivity or thermal conductivity. Polymers typically have electrical conductivity from 10 to 10 S/cm though the addition of a moderately conductive filler such as carbon black conductivities of lO -lO S/cm are possible highly conductive fillers such as silver can raise this value to 10 -10 S/cm. Applications include static dissipative devices and surge protectors. The impact of adding a highly thermally conductive filler to a polymer is much smaller at low-volume fractions vs. the impact of an electrically conductive filler on electrical conductivity. However, if a highly loaded stiff product is acceptable, polymer composites are capable of dissipating substantial amounts of heat. 

MgO is has cubic crystal structure, as shown in Fig. 2.10. MgO ceramics have excellent thermal and mechanical properties with a high melting point of 2850 °C and low density of 3.58 g cm. It has an isotropic cubic crystal strucmre, which meets one of the requirements to be transparent. PolycrystaUine infrared-transparent MgO is a potential substitute for sapphire IR windows and protectors for sensors. Due to the high sintering temperature required for full densification of MgO, fabrication of transparent MgO ceramics is stiU a challenge. Almost aU techniques discussed above have been used to prepare transparent MgO ceramics [3].

Current-responsive protector Devices that inclnde time-lag fuses, magnetic relays, and thermal relays (normally located in the motor or between the motor and controller) that provide a degree of protection to the motor, motor control apparatns, and branch-circuit conductors from overloads or failures to start. 

Electronic protector A monitoring system in which current in the motor leads is sensed and the thermal characteristic of the motor reproduced during both heating and cooling cycles. Other circuits compensate for copper and iron losses and detect a lost phase.
