In many industrial systems, accurate temperature management is key to maintaining performance. Standard snap disc thermostats typically operate with a 10°F to 20°F differential. However, some applications demand a broader range to reduce cycling and improve system stability. For these cases, Senasys offers custom high differential snap disc thermostats, designed specifically for systems requiring larger temperature variations. Contact us today to discuss custom solutions tailored to your application.

How High Differential Snap Disc Thermostats Work

430 Surface Mount Thermostat Switch

High differential thermostats feature a larger gap between activation and deactivation points. As a result, they prevent excessive cycling and reduce wear on equipment. This leads to more reliable operation and longer service life. In addition, the wider differential helps systems run more smoothly, which is particularly useful in industrial environments.

Senasys 430 Series Snap Disc Thermostats

The 430 series ½” snap disc thermostats are ideal for various industrial applications. Built in the U.S., they can be customized to meet specific needs. We can adjust the bi-metal disc to create a unique temperature differential, tailored to each application. This flexibility makes the 430 series a strong choice for situations that demand precise temperature control. View the 430 Series Snap Disc Product Page.

Application: Polyester Heaters

Differential Snap Disc ThermostatsOne common use for high differential snap discs is in polyester heaters. These heaters are designed to cover large surface areas and are often used to heat shop floors, melt snow, or control the temperature in smaller spaces like terrariums. Because they can be customized in size and shape, they offer versatility in various industrial settings.

In this setup, a high differential snap disc prevents overheating. For instance, if the heater reaches 225°F, the thermostat will shut it off. It will only reactivate once the temperature drops to 45°F, ensuring that the system doesn’t overheat. This approach not only ensures safety but also extends the life of the heating element by minimizing cycling.
