Motors of any type take some input power (whether electrical, chemical, or some other form) to generate mechanical power. This mechanical power conversion process generates heat as a byproduct, and the collection of this heat is often referred to as thermal build up. Without proper controls or monitoring, thermal build up can reach a level that damages the motor. Thermal switches and thermistors allow automated systems to sense the temperature levels within a motor.
Below are references to the thermal sensors used in each of our servo motors and links to their datasheets.
