More Information
Summary:An electro-technical device includes a first coil connected to a first sensor for receiving a current therefrom representative of a sensed condition, the first coil being anchored at first and second ends. A second coil is connected to a second sensor for receiving a current therefrom representative of a sensed condition, the second coil being anchored at first and second ends and being adjacent to the first coil. When the first and second coils receive an increased current from the first and second sensors, the first and second coils each create a magnetic flux that repel one another in order to cause at least one of the coils to break so that a shutdown signal can be sent.
