Intermetro RPC13-234 Heated Cabinet Thermostat 25A 250V

A temperature control thermostat used in commercial holding and warming equipment, operating within an approximate range of 80°F to 200°F. It works through a 36-inch capillary tube connected to a sensing bulb that reacts to temperature changes inside the equipment and sends a mechanical signal to switch heating on and off based on set levels. The unit is rated for 25A at 250V. This thermostat is commonly used in food holding cabinets and warming units in restaurants and institutional kitchens. When the original control becomes inaccurate or slow, the temperature inside the cabinet may fluctuate. Replacing the thermostat brings back basic temperature switching so equipment continues normal heating during holding operations.

Equipment Compatibility:
Key applications for this Intermetro thermostat include commercial warming cabinets and holding equipment used in foodservice operations. This Thermostat RPC13-234 is compatible with commercial equipment from leading brands such as Intermetro, and more, where temperature control is required for normal operation.
