Managing temperature in high-traffic commercial freezers requires precise control to maintain cold air retention. Freezer air curtains create an air barrier that limits temperature fluctuations. Incorporating Snap Disc Thermostat Switches for freezer air curtains automates their operation, ensuring accurate responses to temperature changes.

Explore our Snap Disc Thermostat Switches to improve the functionality of your air curtain system and reduce system wear.

Thermostat Switches for Freezer Air Curtains

Functionality of Snap Disc Thermostat Switches

Snap Disc Thermostat Switches are mechanical devices that react to temperature changes by snapping open or closed. In freezer air curtain applications, they ensure the system activates or deactivates based on specific conditions:

  • Below 15°F: The Snap Disc closes the circuit, activating the air curtain to maintain the barrier against warm air.
  • Above 15°F: The Snap Disc opens the circuit, turning off the air curtain during non-operational periods, such as maintenance or cleaning.

This automated operation reduces unnecessary system activity and helps maintain stable conditions.
