Hestan 18024 Hi-limit Switch 265 Degrees F Commercial Range

Product Description

The HESTAN 18024 is a hi-limit switch rated at 265 degrees F, designed to protect commercial cooking equipment from overtemperature conditions. When the monitored surface or component reaches the setpoint, the switch opens the circuit and interrupts operation, preventing damage to the unit and reducing fire risk. This type of thermal cutout is a standard safety control found in commercial ranges and cooktops. Installation is typically performed by a qualified commercial appliance technician or licensed service professional familiar with high-temperature cooking equipment.

This switch is a direct replacement part for Hestan commercial range and refrigeration units across multiple product lines. Compatible model designations listed include both gas range and refrigeration drawer configurations in 30-inch, 36-inch, and 48-inch platform sizes. It is suited for commercial kitchen environments where Hestan equipment is already installed and in service.
