Product Overview
The Rheem SP11231 is a precision-engineered replacement thermostat and high limit control designed for reliable temperature regulation in Rheem water heating systems. This component serves a dual function, operating as both a thermostat and a safety high limit device to protect your water heater from overheating conditions.
Key Specifications
- Configuration: 2 Pole
- Temperature Range: 120°F – 170°F
- High Limit Setting: 190°F
- Reset Type: Manual Reset
- Component Type: Thermodisc Upper Thermostat
Design & Function
This upper thermostat utilizes a Thermodisc design, providing accurate and responsive temperature sensing for the upper heating element of compatible Rheem water heaters. The 2 pole configuration ensures a complete circuit interruption when the high limit threshold is reached, delivering a higher level of safety compared to single pole designs.
High Limit Safety Protection
Equipped with a built-in high limit cut-off set at 190°F, this thermostat automatically shuts down the heating element if water temperatures reach a potentially dangerous level. The manual reset feature requires a deliberate reset action before the unit can resume normal operation, helping to prevent automatic restart until the root cause of overheating has been identified and addressed.
Temperature Control Range
With an adjustable operating range of 120°F to 170°F, this thermostat allows for flexible water temperature settings to meet household or commercial hot water demands while maintaining safe and energy-efficient performance.
Compatibility
This is a genuine Rheem OEM replacement part, engineered to meet the exact specifications of compatible Rheem water heater models. Always verify compatibility with your specific model number prior to installation.
