ABSTRACT:
A temperature responsive device, such as a fuse or a temperature measuring apparatus, is disclosed including a temperature sensor having a light reflective (or light transmissive) characteristic which varies with temperature, and a device for receiving the light reflected from (or transmitted through) the sensor and to provide an output in accordance with the state of the characteristic. As shown, the sensor (perhaps an adhesive temperature indicator) is used as a fuse and, upon its color-change, it interrupts a switch 2 connecting a power source to a load the temperature of which the sensor senses.
