Contact thermostat 150c 09500011

What is a contact thermostat

A contact thermostat is a safety and control component that monitors the temperature of the boiler or heating element in a coffee machine. When the set temperature is reached, it interrupts or closes the heating circuit, keeping the water or steam within the correct range. Through direct contact with the element, it reacts quickly to temperature changes without complex electronics.

When the part stops doing its job

A worn or damaged thermostat causes unstable water temperature, coffee that is too hot or too cold, longer heating times, or a complete loss of heating. In worse cases, a faulty contact can cause the machine to overheat or trigger safety fuses, signalling a more serious safety issue.

When it's time for a replacement

The thermostat is part of the coffee machine's safety chain, so replacing it at the first signs of failure prevents further damage to the heating system and reduces the risk of overheating. Delaying replacement usually results in even more unstable performance and faster wear of other components.
