Frequently asked questions
Does this thermostat offer precise temperature regulation?
Yes, this component is engineered for high accuracy in thermal safety. It is calibrated to open the circuit at 150°C (302°F) and will automatically reset at 115°C (115°F), ensuring your equipment stays within safe operational parameters.
Is this part compatible with my Tuttnauer 1730M?
Absolutely. The RPI TUT155 is specifically designed as a replacement for the Tuttnauer model 1730M (120VAC) and serves as a direct equivalent to OEM Part #THE005-0012.
What electrical load can this component handle?
This thermostat is built to be robust, supporting various power setups:
- 120VAC: Up to 15 Amps
- 220VAC: Up to 10 Amps
Where is the best place to install this switch?
For optimal safety and performance, this thermostat should be installed directly between the heating element and the chamber of your sterilizer.
How do I connect this thermostat to my unit?
The unit is designed for a straightforward installation using standard 1/4” tabs, ensuring a secure and reliable electrical connection.
Is this thermostat an automatic reset type?
Yes, it features an automatic reset mechanism. This means that once the temperature drops to the closing threshold of 115°C (115°F), the circuit will close again without requiring manual intervention.
Are these thermostats brand new from the factory?
Yes, all RPI TUT155 units are Factory New components, ensuring you receive a fresh part that meets modern manufacturing standards for your equipment.
Why is this considered a critical safety component?
As an overtemp thermostat, its primary function is to prevent hazardous overheating. By cutting power to the heating element when the temperature limit is reached, it acts as a crucial safeguard for both the equipment and the sterilization process.
Can I use this for non-Tuttnauer autoclaves?
The TUT155 is specifically engineered for Tuttnauer 1730M equipment. To ensure the safety of your device and the validity of your repairs, we recommend using this part strictly for its intended OEM model compatibility.
