The Thermostat is a precision temperature control device used in professional steam/electric iron boxes. It automatically regulates the iron's soleplate temperature by cycling the heating element on and off, ensuring consistent, safe, and optimal heat for different fabric types. This component is essential for preventing fabric damage from overheating and for energy-efficient operation.
• Precise Temperature Regulation: Automatically maintains the soleplate at a user-selected temperature setting, crucial for ironing everything from delicate synthetics to heavy cotton.
• High-Current Capacity: Rated for 10A at 220V, allowing it to reliably control the power circuit of a typical 900W-2000W iron heating element.
• Durable Construction: Built with a brass and ceramic assembly, offering excellent thermal conductivity for accurate sensing and robust electrical insulation.
• Safe and Reliable: Prevents the iron from exceeding safe temperatures, protecting both the garments being pressed and the iron itself from damage.
• Standard Electrical Connection: Features screw/lug terminals for secure and straightforward wiring into the iron's control circuit.
• Primary temperature control in Star Fish SCSP 017 series (and other compatible) professional steam/electric iron boxes.
• Repair or replacement of faulty thermostats to restore proper temperature control in irons.
• A critical spare part for any maintenance program on professional laundry pressing equipment.
