Ariston - Indesit Refrigerator Bimetal Thermostat (Original)

Ariston - Indesit Refrigerator Bimetal Thermostat (Original) is an original spare part that switches the heater circuit on and off according to temperature in the defrost system of No-Frost refrigerators. With its plug-in socket cable connection and dual thermal fuse design, it ensures the frozen evaporator coil is defrosted safely.

Original Bimetal Control That Protects the Defrost System

The bimetal thermostat senses the temperature on the evaporator coil and ensures the defrost heater operates only within the required range. When defrosting is complete, it cuts the circuit, protecting both the heater and the cabinet against overheating. As seen in the image, its blue-brown wires and white plug-in socket make installation practical; it fits as a direct replacement for the original part in compatible Ariston and Indesit No-Frost models.
