Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0833357A2] The adjustment method has a rotary movement converted into a spacing variation of the release distance (y) between a mechanical detection system (2) with a number of bimetallic strips (1) and a thermal release mechanism (3). The rotary movement is effected via a setting current and a tolerance compensation within a defined scale angle range (a). The latter is divided into a first partial range for the current setting adjustment and a second partial range for tolerance compensation adjustment.
