Does anyone know who makes these ?

A logo is visible on the right of the lid :

I need to find a replacement. The markings on the top read NA38 94076
Z0110A02C1.

Or maybe ZO110A02C1 (zed oh, not zed zero).

Looks like a switch.

It is.

Sensata don't seem to have any with the same form factor.
And they're on the wrong side of the Atlantic for me. Which is
perhaps why they don't have the part I need. g

The klixon is a Siltal part, an Italian white goods
manufacturer. But that doesn't tell me who actually made it.
This isn't the Siltal logo.


Klixon made it. It was part of Texas Instruments, but Klixon was
sold to Sensata.



Siltal is out of business and the part is "no longer
manufactured". Off to find a generic replacement.

An ohmmeter and a saucepan full of water tell me that it's
indeed an NA38, i.e. normally open, closed above 38°C. I would
have expected a security thermostat to have a much higher
actuating temperature, like 100°C. What is 38°C good for ?
Preventing damage to wool/synthetic ?

Thanks everyone.
