The Klixon 4344 precision thermostat is constructed with a snapacting bimetal disc, which serves as the actuating element. As the temperature reaches a predetermined calibration point, the disc snaps to its reverse curvature producing a crisp, positive switching action inherent to Klixon thermostats. This feature assures reliable, consistent operating temperature over long cycle life.
The 4344 thermostat is hermetically sealed, making it an ideal choice for harsh environments. For more information, download the 4344 data sheet (file format: PDF, file size: 700K) or see the page of free drawings available for download.
