THERMISTOR CONTROL BOARD
SKU: HOS2B0595-01
Condition: NEW
Control boards are responsible for temperature, timing, activation and actuation, and other operational functions of restaurant equipment and HVAC systems. They may also display information to the user, such as the current ambient temperature, the temperature of a walk-in cooler, or the time remaining on an oven's cooking cycle. Some control boards may also have diagnostic functions and alarms to alert the user to any problems with the equipment. These boards are critical in ensuring personal comfort or the proper operation and optimal performance of restaurant equipment, helping to ensure that food is cooked and stored safely and efficiently.
Controls of all kinds are integral parts of restaurant equipment operation. A control is a switch or other device by which a machine is regulated. A control may be manual or automatically operated. An electro-mechanical control typically consists of multiple relays, timers, and/or counters wired together on an enclosure panel. Electro-mechanical control is also referred to simply as "Relay Control", which is a more accurate term since solid state electronic relays, timers, and counters are standard components. Contactors, motor and compressor starters, valves, thermostats, and other output devices are used to turn on/off motors, indicator lights, heating elements, and other components used in the equipment.
A thermistor is a temperature sensor commonly used in restaurant equipment such as ovens, refrigerators, ice machines and other foodservice equipment. It is a resistor having resistance that changes in response to temperature fluctuations. In other words, the resistance of a thermistor increases as the temperature decreases, and vice versa.
Thermistors are often used in restaurant equipment because they are accurate, reliable, and relatively inexpensive. They are also small and easy to install, which makes them a popular choice for use in a wide range of food production and storage equipment. In addition, thermistors respond quickly to changes in temperature, which makes them well-suited for use in applications where the temperature may change rapidly.
Thermistors are typically connected to a control system which allows the equipment to accurately monitor and control the temperature where temperature control is crucial for ensuring food safety and maintaining quality.
