E.G.O 56.10511.520 Protective Temperature Limiter

Product: E.G.O 56.10511.520 – Protective Temperature Limiter

Features & Benefits

• Fixed cut-off safety protection: Automatically interrupts the circuit at 57 °C to prevent overheating.

• Compact single-pole design: Suitable for smaller load or single-circuit heating setups.

• Remote sensing via capillary: Offers flexibility in sensor placement, helpful when the limiter housing must be mounted away from the heat zone.

• High reliability: Built by E.G.O, known for thermostats & safety limiters in industrial applications.

• Easy retro-fit: Its fixed nature makes it suitable as a direct safety replacement in existing equipment requiring a 57 °C limit.

Typical Applications

• Protective cut-off in heating plates, hot-plates or ovens where 57 °C is a critical safety limit.

• Industrial or commercial heating where a failsafe over-temperature switch is required.

• Environments where remote placement of the sensor is needed but a compact control housing is preferred.

• Auxiliary safety device in systems that already have primary thermostat control and need a backup limiter.

Installation & Usage Tips

• Mount the sensor probe in firm contact with the surface or medium whose temperature is to be monitored—ensuring no air gap or insulation layer.

• When routing the capillary tube, avoid sharp bends or kinks; ensure no part of the tube is exposed to higher ambient temperatures than its specification.

• Verify the load current and voltage of the connected circuit is compatible with the limiter’s rating.

• Perform a functional test: raise the temperature gradually and confirm the circuit is cut off near 57 °C.

• Ensure the limiter housing is mounted in a suitable location, protected from mechanical damage or corrosion.

Important Notes

• This device is a fixed-cut-off limiter and not an adjustable thermostat — the temperature is factory set to 57 °C.

• If your system requires adjustable temperature regulation, this model may not be suitable.

• The cut-off point is moderate, so confirm your application needs this exact temperature.

• For higher current or multi-circuit systems, use a contactor or relay for added safety.

Summary

The E.G.O 56.10511.520 is a reliable, single-pole protective temperature limiter that cuts off at 57 °C. Compact, accurate, and durable — it’s ideal for safety-critical heating applications that require dependable over-temperature protection.
