The 36T series of 1/2” bimetal temperature controls from Therm-O-Disc offers proven reliability in a compact, versatile, cost-effective design. The snap-action of the bimetal disc provides high-speed contact separation resulting in excellent life cycle characteristics at electrical loads up to 15 amps at 120VAC and 10 amps at 250VAC (100,000 cycles) and 16 amps at 250VAC (30,000 cycles). A variety of terminal and mounting configurations are available for maximum design flexibility. The quality, reliability, affordability, versatility and world-wide agency approvals of the 36T Series make it the thermostat of choice for a wide variety of temperature control applications.
