What it is

A Potterton overheat thermostat, supplied under the part name THERMOSTAT - OVERHEAT MICROTHERM R20 A119 M5 96C and catalogue part number 5106291. It is a limit thermostat rated at 96°C, fitted to Potterton Powermax HE and Promax Store appliances, where it acts as a safety cut-out to shut the appliance down if the stored water or heat exchanger temperature exceeds the set limit. The component carries the Microtherm R20 A119 M5 reference.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • The appliance repeatedly locks out on overheat and needs manual resetting
  • Stored water or appliance temperature rises beyond the normal operating range
  • The overheat trip occurs shortly after firing, even with the control thermostat set lower
  • The limit stat fails to reset or has no continuity through its contacts

Before you order

  • Confirm the serial number prefix and suffix of the cylinder, as the fitment list distinguishes serial numbers ending in AC and in BC
  • Check that the existing thermostat is marked 96°C to match this part
  • Verify the appliance model against the fitment list before ordering, particularly on Promax Store cylinder variants
