Installation Notes
Always verify the required temperature rating and dimensional specifications against the original equipment manufacturer’s (OEM) requirements before installation. Fusible links must be replaced after any fire event or accidental heat exposure, as a triggered link cannot be reused. Consult local fire codes and NFPA standards for proper application and inspection intervals.
