How to figure out how many Thermostat(s) you need for your Electric Heaters? This Thermostat - Model M601W is rated for 21 amps at 110/220 volts. So - to figure out what you need - add up all the watts your heaters will use and divide by your volts. Watts divided by voltage = amps. When in doubt - use a lower voltage. For example: 1 Electric Heaters at 1,500 watts at 110 volts. 1 times 1,500 watts = 1,500 watts 1,500 watts / 110 volts = 13.64 amps So - model M601W would be big enough for this application. Another Example: 2 Electric Heaters at 1,500 watts each at 110 volts. 2 times 1,500 watts = 3,000 watts 3,000 watts / 110 volts = 27.27 amps So - model M601W would not be big enough for this application and you would have to use two separate thermostats - one for each heater. |
