The B57164K0101J000 is a 2-pin NTC Thermistor with tinned copper leads and lacquer-coated thermistor disk. This B57164K series through hole mounting thermistor is marked with resistance and tolerance. A lead (wire) may be bent at a minimum distance of twice the wire's diameter plus 4mm from the component head or housing. When bending ensure the wire is mechanically relieved at the component head or housing. The bending radius should be at least 0.75mm. Twisting (torsion) by 180° of a lead bent by 90° is permissible at 6mm from the bottom of the thermistor body. Soldering can use resin-type flux or non-activated flux. The soldering due to insufficient preheating may cause ceramic cracks. Pressure contacting by means of clamps is particularly suitable for applications involving frequent switching and high turn-on powers. Suitable for temperature measurement and compensation.
