Thermostats are temperature sensors used to measure and maintain a preset temperature. They are common in HVAC (heating, ventilating, and air conditioning) systems as well as refrigeration and other temperature-controlled applications. The 310000040372 is a mechanical thermostat designed for residential and commercial applications. This device features a split-stem design, which offers greater flexibility and ease of maintenance.

The 310000040372 works by sensing the air temperature and comparing it to the preset temperature or threshold set by the user. When the air temperature is lower than the preset temperature, the 310000040372 will open the contacts, allowing electricity to flow through the device and to the heater or air conditioning unit. This will either cool down or warm up the space to bring it to the desired temperature.

When the air temperature exceeds the preset temperature, the 310000040372 will close the contacts, preventing electricity from flowing through the device. This will shut off the heater or air conditioning unit, preventing the space from becoming too hot or cold. In addition, the 310000040372 is equipped with a manual reset switch which the user can activate if the system needs to be manually reset.

The 310000040372 features a compact and lightweight design, making it ideal for a variety of residential and commercial applications. It is designed to operate in ambient air temperatures ranging from 32°F (0°C) to 104°F (40°C). The device is capable of controlling loads up to 5 amp, and also features a terminal for redundant wiring to ensure reliable operation. It is UL approved and is RoHS compliant.

The 310000040372 is easy to install and requires minimal maintenance. It is an ideal choice for applications such as HVAC systems, ventilation, drying systems, refrigeration, and other temperature-controlled systems. The device is extremely reliable and has been designed to offer long-term durability.
