The STRIX T34 control is a kettle or jug element protector incorporating self resetting protection against accidental dry switch-on, or the appliance boiling dry. Additionally all variants incorporate the STRIX patented Thermal Fuse (TF) third level protection.

• Dry Boil Protection
• Integral Fail-Safe Thermal Fuse
• Suitable for Plastic and Metal Appliances
• For Immersed Heater Applications
• For Fixed Cord Aplliances
• Proven reliability minimising the need for appliance end of line testing
• Simplified robust construction specifically designed to minimise the installed cost
• Many control variants allow simple conversions and maximum design flexibility
• World-wide approvals facilitate entry into the international market place

The T34 comprises of two single pole switches, one in the element line supply, one in the neutral. The line contacts are opened by the dry switch-on protector which responds to the heat conducted from the element, should the element overheat due to lack of water within the vessel. The neutral contacts are normally closed but will open if there is a need for the Thermal Fuse to operate.

• The seal is fitted to the hole in the appliance and the control is attached through the appliance hole onto the element by three screws, compressing the seal to a pre-set value.
• Further information, applications, drawings and advice are available from any STRIX sales office.
