Refridge Denfrost KSD-WB17

Description

Samsung-Style KSD PW-015 Refrigerator Defrost Thermostat & Thermal Fuse Assembly Product Description Keep your refrigerator’s automatic defrost system operating safely and efficiently with the premium KSD PW-015 Refrigerator Defrost Thermostat Assembly. Engineered specifically to regulate freezing temperatures inside modern frost-free appliance compartments, this integrated module prevents thick ice from choking the evaporator coils, ensuring continuous, optimal airflow. This dual-action safety unit houses a highly responsive bimetal temperature disc alongside a backup 72°C thermal safety fuse, all securely sealed inside a thick, blue-tinted vinyl pouch. The bimetal switch automatically closes to supply power to the defrost heater when frost levels cause temperatures to drop, and snaps open the moment the ice melts away. If a system failure causes the heater to run continuously, the inline thermal fuse acts as a permanent fail-safe, instantly cutting power to protect your freezer’s internal plastic liner from warping or melting. Key Features Integrated 2-in-1 Assembly: Houses both the bimetal temperature controller and a high-limit thermal safety cutout in a single, space-saving pouch. Unified 3-Pin Plug Connector: Outfitted with a premium, molded 3-wire rectangular terminal block (featuring Brown, Black, and Red leads) for a secure, airtight, plug-and-play connection. Hermetically Sealed Protection: The blue vinyl casing completely locks out moisture and frost meltwater, preventing internal contact corrosion and premature electrical short circuits. Compatible Mechanisms & Appliance Brands This 3-wire, rectangular-plug component is a widely recognized replacement standard engineered primarily for electronic and mechanical defrost loops. It is directly compatible with: Samsung: This is a direct factory replacement part configuration for an extensive range of Samsung double-door, side-by-side, and top-freezer frost-free refrigerators. It replaces standard component profiles like the KSD PW-015 Defrost Thermostat for SAMSUNG. Kenmore: Fits select Kenmore models built utilizing the Samsung appliance chassis platform. Universal Mechanical Defrost Timers: Functions perfectly with standard 4-pin mechanical defrost timers that route the secondary safety fuse line through a unified 3-lead return loop. 🛠️ Installation Check: Please visually inspect your refrigerator’s old part before purchasing. This assembly features three wires terminating into a single, unified 3-pin rectangular plug head. If your existing sensor features a 2-pin plug, a 4-pin plug, or splits into two separate plug heads, this specific model will not fit your wiring harness without modification.
