Questions about this item
Does the 38C0005400 thermistor itself wear out and need periodic replacement in a 3VE49-52 heater?
The thermistor is a solid-state sensor with no moving parts; it typically lasts the life of the heater unless physically damaged or contaminated.
What is the first limit reached when a 3VE49-52 heater runs continuously with this thermistor installed?
The heater's own high-limit safety switch will trip before the thermistor reaches any thermal limit.
How much extra heat or noise does the 38C0005400 add during all-day operation of a 3VE50 unit?
The thermistor draws negligible power and produces no audible noise or measurable heat of its own.
