Hermetic compressor motor terminal

摘要: A hermetic electrical terminal construction adapted for connection to the outer housing of a motor compressor unit so that current may be carried from an external source. The comprises body member welded or otherwise secured and plurality conductor pins extending through member. Each pins, which made stainless steel, copper other suitable material, first segment disposed within housing, second outside intermediate connecting segments, being primarily Electrical insulating sealing such as glass epoxy potting, surrounds pin forms seal between has larger transverse cross-sectional area than with concomitant carrying capacity under irreversible overcurrent conditions, normal diameter will melt thereby interrupting supply current. Since portion is greater capacity, it remain intact potting material not disturbed pressurized refrigerant discharged.
