RS PRO Bi-Metallic Thermostat, Closes at 55 °C, Maximum Operating Temperature +180 °C, Normally Closed, Automatic 222-8228

RS PRO 222-8228 Bi-Metallic Thermostat is a high-quality thermostatic switch designed for electrical and automation applications requiring reliable temperature control. Featuring a bi-metallic disc as the thermal sensor, it actuates at a closing temperature of 55 °C to protect devices from overheating. The thermostat is rated for a maximum operating temperature of +180 °C and can handle contact currents up to 16 A, making it ideal for various industrial and commercial electrical appliances.

This switch uses a normally closed (NC) contact arrangement with automatic reset functionality, ensuring that the thermostat returns to its default state after cooling down. The fixed mount design and horizontal tab terminals allow for secure and straightforward installation in appliances.

Measuring approximately 12.4 mm in height, this compact thermostat is a compatible replacement or design component for applications such as coffee machines, smoke detectors, heating elements, boilers, and other HVAC systems. Its rapid response time to temperature changes is due to the low mass of the bimetallic disc, enhancing safety and performance.
