2-wire. REF. Defrost Temperature Control, SNR-011
The image shows an SNR-011 Defrost Temperature Control, a 2-wire bimetal defrost thermostat used as a safety device in refrigerators and freezers.
Product Specifications & Features
- Model Number: AFTC-SNR-011.
- Type: 2-wire bimetal defrost thermostat (thermal cutout).
- Wiring: Equipped with two lead wires (one red, one white) terminated with bullet connectors (one male, one female with a protective sleeve).
- Mounting: Features a black plastic clip designed to snap directly onto the evaporator tube for accurate temperature sensing.
- Function: It monitors the evaporator coil temperature during a defrost cycle. Once the ice has melted and the temperature rises to a specific limit, it automatically opens the circuit to shut off the defrost heater, preventing the unit from overheating.
Common Applications & Compatibility
This part is a common replacement for “No Frost” refrigerators and freezers. It is visually and functionally equivalent to several major OEM parts, most notably the Frigidaire/Electrolux 297216600.
- Compatible Brands: Frigidaire, Electrolux, Kenmore, Gibson, Kelvinator, and White-Westinghouse.
- Signs of Failure: You may need to replace this part if your freezer has heavy frost buildup on the back panel or if the refrigerator section is not cooling properly due to blocked airflow.
