280148 Replacment

The 280148 Kit provides essential safety protections for clothes dryers by combining a thermal cut-off fuse and a high-limit thermostat. If the dryer temperature exceeds safe operating limits, these components interrupt power to the heating circuit to prevent overheating or fire hazard.

280148 Key Features:

Dual protection: includes thermal fuse (non-resettable) and high-limit thermostat

Cuts off at excessive temperature, then needs replacement to restore function

Low internal resistance during normal operation to avoid voltage loss

Compact form-factor designed to install in Heating / Blower housings

Compatible with many Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, Amana, JennAir, and related dryer models that list 280148 (or crossrefs such as 1175772, AP3874047, PS991443) as the thermal safety kit part number
