High Limit Safety Thermostat 232C 450F Manual Reset Pressure Fryer
High Limit Safety Thermostat 232C 450F Manual Reset Pressure Fryer
Product Overview
This high limit safety thermostat is a premium replacement component for Henny Penny commercial pressure fryers. It cuts power at a fixed 232C (450F) to protect the fryer from dangerous overheating, preventing oil breakdown, equipment damage, and potential fire risk. The thermostat features a manual reset button, meaning it must be deliberately reset by the engineer after a trip - this is an intentional safety feature that prevents the fryer from restarting automatically after an overheat event. Henny Penny part number 16738 is also cross-referenced as LCH68024000 and LCH68036000 (Robertshaw).
