It monitors evaporator coil temperature and interrupts the defrost heater circuit once the coil reaches the cutout temperature, preventing overheating and protecting system components. This part is typically installed by refrigeration technicians and appliance service professionals working on residential and light commercial refrigeration equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SL2697 is suited for use in refrigerators and freezers where precise defrost cycle control is required. It serves as a direct replacement component in systems that rely on a bimetal-style defrost thermostat to terminate the defrost heater at the appropriate coil temperature. Installers working on a range of residential refrigeration units will find this a practical service part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTerminates defrost heater circuit at setpoint coil temperature to prevent overheating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBimetal thermostat construction for reliable temperature-activated switching\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for drop-in replacement in residential and light commercial refrigeration applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact form factor suitable for evaporator coil mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement defrost thermostat for residential and light commercial refrigeration systems requiring a bimetal defrost thermostat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified appliance technician or refrigeration service professional. Disconnect power to the refrigeration unit completely before accessing the evaporator compartment or removing the existing thermostat. The thermostat is typically clipped or secured directly to the evaporator coil, and lead wires should be connected per the original wiring configuration. Refer to the unit's service manual for the correct mounting location and wiring diagram.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Defrost Thermostat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SUPCO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: SL2697\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SUPCO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51971264119090,"sku":"SL2697","price":23.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/27ffeec0028a4b03789c8de8ac05e2f7.jpg?v=1789955198","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/supco-sl2697-defrost-thermostat","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
