<p>A thermostatic switch comprises a bimetallic strip 200 with a free end 220 which deflects according to temperature and comes to bear against a fixed contact 410 when the temperature reaches a predetermined value. The fixed contact 410 is mounted on a terminal 400 screwed into a cover 300 of the switch and the movable end 220 of the bimetallic strip is bent at an angled of the order of 45 DEG . By screw-adjustment of the terminal 400 in the cover 300 the position of the fixed contact 410 in relation to the movable end of the bimetallic strip may be regulated so to set the temperature at which contact is closed. <IMAGE></p> |
