| Overview: |
The STRIX U1885 control is specifically designed for 'illumination' and 'two power'
applications which use a heating element which is hidden from the consumer. A
flying lead provides a direct power take off for a second heating element track
or for high power neons which is independant of the integrated steam switch.
It also incorporates two-level, two pole protection against boiling dry or
accidental dry switch on of the appliance. There is also an incorporated
non-cycling and therefore energy saving dry protection system.

| Functional Description: |
STRIX U1885 control is designed for mounting directly onto
the underside of conventional concealed heating elements and incorporates
the upper part of the STRIX P72 360º rotation cordless. It
features a 2 pole dry switch on protection system which utilises
2 bimetal sensors for optimum dry protection performance. Additionally,
this control also features a non-cycling
dry protection system. An "automatic off" feature is also incorporated
which causes the switch actuator to
move to the off position when the appliance is removed from its
power base, and prevents the appliance from being switched on again
until it is placed back on its power base.
|
| Installation: |
- The control is fixed to the base of the appliance directly onto
the heater element plate by means of screws , rivets or by clinching.
Conventional heating elements are electrically connected
by flexible wires.
- The cosmetic cover may be attached directly to the control.
- Further information, application drawings and advice are available
from any STRIX Sales office.
