This safety thermostat is a temperature-sensitive switch that helps protect your appliance from overheating. When excessive heat is detected, it opens the circuit to stop power to critical components, helping prevent damage and ensuring safe operation.
- Monitors temperature at a specific location and interrupts power if it exceeds a safe limit
- Can cause no power, no heat, or shutdown during use when failed or tripped
- Helps prevent overheating damage to internal components
- Restores normal operation when replaced
What's included: Safety thermostat only. Install notes:
- Disconnect power to the appliance before service
