Description

The Limiter-Temperature is an OEM component specifically designed for select Bosch vented dryers requiring controlled heat. As a safety device, it restricts air exiting the exhaust to prevent accidental ignition of accumulated lint.

Precisely calibrated mechanothermal links automatically trip circuit breakers upon exceeding preset levels. Isolated housings shield reactive alloys from moisture while enabling thermodynamics to naturally trigger protective functions. 

Causes requiring replacement involve over-heating from sustained over-drying preventing auto-stops. Physical damage exposing reactive cores could also impair intended response times.

Symptoms signaling the need for a new temperature limiter include:

• Inability to sense rising exhaust temperatures activating cutoffs
• Constantly energized heating elements lacking temperature regulation  
• Excessively long or uncontrolled dry cycles posing combustion risks

This OEM Bosch replacement component is also compatible with some Gaggenau, Thermador, and select Kenmore dryers employing sensitive temperature cutoffs. Correct installation restores critical overheat protection circuits.
