The unit is rated for 22 A at 120–240 VAC, making it suitable for switching standard line-voltage heating circuits without a separate low-voltage control system. Inside, a bi-metal strip responds to ambient temperature changes and mechanically opens or closes the switch to maintain the desired temperature. Bi-metal thermostats operate by the differing expansion rates of two metals, creating bending motion that interrupts or completes the electrical circuit as the setpoint is reached. This wall-mount thermostat is intended for installations where direct control of heating elements is required, providing simple mechanical on\/off control without electronics at low voltages. Use cases include controlling electric heaters and similar line-voltage loads where a robust, mechanical thermostat is preferred. The MD26R rating covers the necessary current and voltage range to handle heating elements within the 120–240 VAC spectrum.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Fahrenheat","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":51685948981550,"sku":null,"price":399.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0818\/1038\/files\/Ebay_website_image_ede76c94-9942-45cf-ba0d-6f78a9ade5e6.jpg?v=1769733524","url":"https:\/\/plgautomation.com\/products\/industrial-md26r-wall-mount-bi-metal-line-voltage-thermostat","provider":"PLG Automation ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
