Description

This thermal fuse is a single-use overheat cutoff that interrupts power when temperatures exceed safe limits, helping protect the appliance from overheating and preventing further component damage. What it does:

• Opens the electrical circuit when excessive heat is detected to stop operation and reduce fire risk
• Commonly used in heating and cooling appliance circuits where temperature protection is required
• Helps isolate failed heating components by cutting power if a thermostat or heater malfunctions
• Serves as a safety device — once tripped it must be replaced to restore normal operation

What's included:

• One thermal fuse

Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting any service
• Replace only with the exact part number shown; do not bypass or jumper the fuse
• Install in the same orientation and mounting location as the original
• If the new fuse trips immediately, stop and diagnose the appliance to find the underlying fault
