Selco's New OMH Thermostat Series Provides UL Approved High Limit Safety Device for Applications Requiring Manual Reset Temperature Control
ANAHEIM, Calif. - Jan. 28, 2009 - Selco Products has announced the immediate availability of the new High Temperature Manual Reset ½" Thermostat OMH Series.

Typical applications include temperature control for beverage equipment, commercial and residential appliances, food equipment, HVAC equipment, and heaters.
The new manual reset thermostat incorporates a highly reliable switch that utilizes a temperature sensitive, snap-action bimetal disc, electrically isolated from the switch. Contacts open on rise when surface or ambient temperature increases to the set point of the calibrated bimetal disc. The calibrated fixed disc is mounted adjacent to the monitored surface, providing a rapid response to temperature changes.
