Working Principle

This thermal switch will cut off the circuit automatically in case of overload or overheat. TOPRO BH-TB02 thermal protectors use the same snap-action principle of Klixon protectors. This bimetal disc senses the heat from the equipment which a BH-TB02 product is installed on. When the temperature of the disc reaches a predetermined calibration point, the disc snaps open the contacts, thus breaking the current path. When the equipment returns to a normal operating range, the BH-TB02 protector resets (closes circuit) automatically.

Differential of terms: thermal protector, thermal switch, thermal protection switch, temperature switch, Thermal Cut-out, temperature controller, thermostat 
The terms thermal protector, thermal switch, temperature switch, temperature controller and thermostat all refer to a mechanical device that contains a bimetallic strip sensitive to temperature and is therefore used to trigger a snap action when the temperature rises to a preset point. The snap action can cut off or put through power supply to control the protected device.
Thermal protector is the most standard term. As in most cases a thermal protector is used to protect the motor of a machine, such as vacuum cleaner, power tools, mower, washing machine, compressor, the thermal protector is often referred to as a motor thermal protector or a thermal motor protector. As the thermal protector can make or break the circuit like a usual switch, it is also called a thermal switch or temperature switch. Since they are made with the key component, a bimetallic strip, they are also called bimetal Thermal Switches. A thermostat or temperature controller is used to control the temperature within a certain range. Unlike the motor thermal protector, the thermostat and temperature is often used in a heating device. Literally, thermal protection switches are the same  as thermal protectors or thermal switches.
TOPRO 17AM1 Motor Thermal Protectors are the same in quality and structure as 17AM thermal protectors made by Klixon, but much lower in price.
