Subject:I need a suggestion for a 60C thermostatic switch
From:David Marshall
Date:Sun, 16 Jan 2005 22:26:25 -0800

I am diving in to final stretch of my prototype veggie-oil system for the
Diesel motors.  I am looking for some sort of small (M6 or M8), thermostatic
electric switch that will change state from open to closed, or from closed
to open (I don't care) at around 60C (140F) in order that I can use it to
trigger a relay.  This switch will sample the temperature of veggie oil in a
metal enclosure.  Suggestions or ideas for this would be greatly
appreciated - the more common / cheaper the better.  Most coolant stuff is
about 80C which is too high for my application.

Thanks in advance!
