Close Control: Series 30003
Open Frame Bimetal Thermostat 

 

Fenwal Controls, a leading manufacturer of thermostats, high limits and temperature controls, has introduced the Series 30003 Open Frame Bimetal Thermostats. These temperature controls function on the principle of the differential expansion of metals: the contacts open when the set temperature is reached, and close when the temperature drops. Series 30003 are small differential devices to provide narrow control of surface or airflow temperatures within many different OEM products, including heater fans, commercial and countertop cooking appliances, laminating equipment, dry and steam irons, water heaters, and airflow temperature sensing equipment.

“The Fenwal Series 30003 thermostats are built for long, reliable performance in OEM applications,” said Jerry Harting, Director of Sales and Marketing for Fenwal Controls. “This new family of open frame thermostats is available factory pre-set or adjustable, complementing and expanding the range of applications of our well-known THERMOSWITCH® at a price point OEMs demand.”
