Ashcroft T424TS040 60F Temperature Switch 40-60F Rigid Stem

Product Description

The ASHCROFT T424TS040 60F is a watertight single setpoint temperature switch designed for reliable temperature sensing and control across demanding industrial and commercial applications. Built with a rigid stem configuration and a DPDT contact form, this switch monitors process temperatures within a range of -40 degrees F to 60 degrees F. It is installed by licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, industrial instrumentation technicians, and mechanical contractors in applications where precise temperature-triggered switching is required. The unit ships as a single piece and carries a strong complement of certifications, making it suitable for use in hazardous and regulated environments.

This temperature switch is suited for a wide range of applications including boilers and burners, heating and air conditioning systems, hydraulic and lubrication systems, food processing equipment, chemical and petrochemical plants, degreasers and evaporators, marine equipment, offshore oil rigs, power plants, ground support equipment, and pulp and paper operations. Its watertight construction makes it appropriate for both indoor and outdoor installations where moisture exposure is a concern.

Key Features

• Watertight enclosure for protection in wet and outdoor environments
• Single setpoint design with DPDT contact form for versatile circuit control
• Rigid stem construction for stable immersion mounting in process piping or tanks
• Wide certification portfolio including UL, CSA, CE, RoHS, ATEX, IECEx, and UKEX listings
• Temperature range of -40 degrees F to 60 degrees F covers low-temperature process monitoring needs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct installation temperature switch for boiler controls, HVAC systems, hydraulic and lubrication systems, and industrial process equipment requiring a watertight single setpoint DPDT switching solution.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with process instrumentation, mechanical systems, or HVAC controls. Shut down and de-energize the system before installing or replacing the switch, and depressurize any piping or vessel where the stem will be inserted. Verify that the mounting location and process media are compatible with the switch materials and ratings before installation. Wiring connections must comply with applicable local electrical codes and the NEC where required.
