Definitions

  • disk as use herein and specifically in connection with thermally responsive members 250, 350, and 352, is intended to be construed to include such other shapes.
  • average width shall refer to the smallest diameter of its major face.
  • Assembly 320 desirably includes a flexible electrically conductive metallic disk 330 which comprises a flexible, resilient member 334 extending into the hollow portion 333 of disk 330 from the peripheral edge 332 thereof.
  • An insulating ring 335 is placed between peripheral edge 332 of disk 330 and edge 362 of metal support ring 360.
  • Flexible conductive disk 330 is sandwiched between peripheral edge 327 of end cap 325 and insulating ring 335.
  • Cup shaped body 370 and diaphragm 372 may be readily formed of aluminum which is readily and permanently deformed when exposed to an elevated pressure differential.
  • Insulating grommet 375 may desirably have a thickness of between about 0.1 and 0.5 mm and an overall diameter of between about 4 and 15 mm.
  • Grommet 375 may be formed of a durable yet resilient, corrosion resistant thermoplastic material, for example, a high density polypropylene, which is inert to electrolyte and has sufficient resiliency to provide a good seal between casing 380 and the assembly 320 internal components.
