Why the Triggering Accuracy of Our Thermostats Makes Them Among the Best on the Market

The use of the bimetal thermostat dates back several decades. This simple yet robust mechanical component allows an electrical circuit to be opened or closed once a defined temperature is reached. Most thermostats available on the market offer a standard…

Why Choose a Gold-Contact Bimetallic Thermostat ?

In industrial, defense, aerospace, and other demanding environments, component reliability is crucial. When it comes to managing weak signals or low-intensity loads, the choice of contact materials plays a decisive role in long-term performance. In this context, the gold-contact bimetallic…

Why choose a bimetal thermostat rather than a conventional temperature sensor?

It's essential to understand the difference between a bimetal thermostat and a conventional temperature sensor. A bimetallic thermostat is a switching device consisting of two metal strips that react differently to temperature variations. Operating without electronics, this system stands out…

What is hysteresis, and how does it affect your products ?

In the field of temperature sensors, hysteresis is the difference in behavior of a system as a function of temperature variation. It plays a crucial role, particularly in the operation of bimetal thermostats, Heito's flagship products. Understanding hysteresis helps optimize…

What is a bimetal thermostat and how does it work ?

The bimetallic blade is an essential device for detecting abnormal temperature variations in a variety of heating, ventilation and refrigeration appliances and systems. Its principle is based on the use of two metals with different coefficients of thermal expansion, hence…
