Cooper Crouse-Hinds HRC2 Heavy-Duty Thermostat

The Cooper Crouse-Hinds HRC2 Heavy-Duty Thermostat is an SPDT switching thermostat designed for high-demand electrical control, capable of interrupting loads up to 22 A at 480 VAC, making it suitable for industrial equipment that relies on precise on/off temperature-based control. In SPDT configuration, a common input can be routed to either of two outputs, enabling simple, fail-safe control schemes in control panels, motor circuits, and heating or cooling applications where a single sensor or control line must drive two separate circuits. As part of the HRC2 family, this model emphasizes robust performance in challenging environments, with a design optimized for reliability and long service life in heavy-duty industrial settings where high-current switching is routinely required. The device’s rating of 22 A at 480 VAC defines the maximum current and voltage it can safely switch, helping engineers select a compatible thermostat for loads within these limits while avoiding overstress and premature contact wear.
