Rheem-Ruud SP8294 DPST M/R Electric Thermostat 110°F/170°F

The Rheem-Ruud SP8294 Electric Thermostat is a safety device used in HVAC systems to control the temperatures and to avoid equipment from overheating. This is a manual reset electric thermostat and the cut off temperature is 110°F and the resume temperature is 170 °F. If the temperature exceeds the limit that has been set as the cut-off point it interrupts the electrical circuit and requires a manual rearm until the temperature comes back to safe levels. The SP8294 is a temperature-sensitive component that is applied in electric furnaces, heating systems and appliances, HVAC systems among other units that are normally damaged by high temperatures. It helps prevent overheating and consequent component damage or perhaps dangerous conditions, by shutting down power supply at 110 °F.
