Supco l0887a Thermal Fuse 250V 320F Samsung Replacement

Product Description

The SUPCO l0887a is a replacement thermal fuse rated at 250 volts and 320 degrees F (160 degrees C). Thermal fuses are one-time safety devices that open permanently when exposed to temperatures exceeding their rated threshold, cutting power to protect a dryer drum, heating element, or associated circuit from thermal runaway. This part is installed inside the appliance cabinet, inline with the heating circuit, and is serviced by appliance technicians or experienced trade professionals performing dryer repair.

The l0887a is suited for residential dryer applications where the original thermal fuse has blown due to overheating, a clogged exhaust duct, or a failed cycling thermostat. It is designed as a direct replacement for Samsung part number DC96-00887A. Before replacing the fuse, technicians should diagnose and correct the underlying cause of the overcurrent or overtemperature event to prevent repeat failure.

Key Features

• One-time thermal protection device opens at 320 degrees F (160 degrees C) to interrupt the heating circuit
• Rated for 250 volts, compatible with standard residential dryer electrical systems
• Direct replacement for Samsung OEM part DC96-00887A
• Non-resettable design ensures a positive cutoff with no risk of nuisance reset under fault conditions

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement for Samsung dryer models that use OEM part number DC96-00887A. Verify the original part number on the appliance before installation.

Installation Notes

Disconnect power to the dryer at the breaker or by unplugging the unit before beginning any service work. The thermal fuse is typically accessed by removing the rear panel or front panel depending on the model configuration. Because thermal fuses are non-resettable, always inspect and clear the exhaust duct and verify thermostat operation before installing the replacement to prevent immediate re-failure. This repair is typically performed by appliance technicians following manufacturer service documentation.
