180 Degree DC Water Heating Element Thermostat

Water Overheat and Freeze Thermostats for DC Water Heating

Use these thermostats with our DC water heating elements if you need to regulate the temperature of the liquid you are heating. 

Thermostat Features:

• The thermostats remain on until the temperature of the liquid reaches the rated number. For example, the 180 degree thermostat will remain on until the temperature reaches 180 degrees F.
• All of our thermostats can handle 25 amps at 12 volts. No relay needed! (Can handle AC voltage up to 220VAC and DC voltages up to 50VDC)
• Opens circuit on overheat, effectively cutting power to the heater (normally closed connects).

 Thermostat Specifications:

• Simple in-line wiring system
• Connections are 1/4" spade terminals
• The heat sensor (reverse side) must be firmly mounted on the side of tank with screws or silicone caulking
• Uses a simple and typical "loop" circuit to interrupt power to wiring harness on overheat (Use 10 gauge wire for loop circuit).
• Approximately 1 x 1 x 1 inches in size

Heat ratings are averages (+ or - 3%)
