CTPU Design Specification

A Metrosil CTPU can be constructed in both single and three pole varieties. All CTPUs are factory audited to ISO9001-2015. Please download our Metrosil CTPU data sheet before following the ordering instructions below:

  • Using the data sheet, identify the relevant table for the application
  • Select the Metrosil CTPU type
  • Check the leakage current through the Metrosil CTPU with the burden connected
  • Check the peak voltage which the CTPU limits the open circuited system to
  • Confirm if a second thermostatic switch is required
