Abstract

The device has a first snap switch element (10) consisting of a first spring set that interacts with a control element via a first actuating element and via an isolating distance arrangement with a bimetallic element (40) to form a temperature regulator. A second snap switch element (20) consisting of a second spring set interacts with the actuator via a second actuating element to form an off switch. The first and second snap switch elements and the bimetallic element are isolated from each other on a common connecting element.
