Heating cartridges in MAP thermostat assemblies

A heating cartridge is an electrical heating element used in selected MAP-controlled thermostat assemblies. It transfers heat to the wax working element so that the control system can influence thermostat movement.

Heating cartridge construction

What is reviewed during selection

  • Electrical supply, connector and control strategy
  • Operating medium, temperature range and required response
  • Mechanical interface, sealing arrangement and available installation space
  • Customer-specific validation and endurance requirements

Performance values depend on the final assembly and test method. The TU-POLY Engineering Team can review the application data and discuss a suitable component configuration.
