For over 75 years now, the E.G.O triple pole
capillary thermostats have proved effective in regulating and
controlling heated appliances. The growing demand over the years has
resulted in an increase in production to meet the needs of customers
through the globe. By the end of 1998 E.G.O had supplied millions of
triple pole thermostats to customers in the Domestic, Commercial and
Industrial market sectors.
This increase in demand has allowed E.G.O to
rationalize their production operations, which consequently enables them
to offer competitive prices.
The above thermostat is a typical E.G.O triple pole capillary
thermostat, with change over function - Type: 55.34.series.
The Triple pole capillary thermostat is identified by
the number of contact terminals on the rear of the unit. Each pole
operates independent of the other two contacts during operation.

Operation -
The principal by which a triple pole
capillary thermostat operates is that of liquid expansion. The hydraulic
thermal system (Diastat) consists of the sensor, the capillary tube and
the diaphragm. When the sensor heats up, the liquid expands through the
capillary tube into the diaphragm where the working stroke is produced,
By generating the working stroke, a snap-action switch is actuated which
opens or closes the electrical circuit.
These triple pole capillary
thermostats are intended to regulate the temperatures of liquid, gases
or solids.
