Description

Original thermostat for Sauter oven – precise temperature regulation 8032828

Original thermostat 8032828 for sauter ovens is the component responsible for regulating the temperature in the oven – from 53 to 299 degrees Celsius. The part is manufactured by a leading German manufacturer of control and thermal components, with part number 55.17069.140. Suitable for various sauter models and solves problems with uneven heating, a temperature that does not reach the target, or an oven that overheats.

Oven not reaching the right temperature? The thermostat is the most common component to fail in this situation. When your oven underheats, overheats, or stops heating consistently – the thermostat is usually to blame. Now click the 'Check Model Compatibility' button at the top of the page and confirm that this part is the right one for your oven.

⚠️ Important: Replacing the thermostat in an oven requires partial disassembly of the front panel and access to electrical connections. It is recommended that a qualified technician perform the replacement. Incorrect installation may cause damage to the oven and be a safety hazard.

Why doesn't the oven reach the correct temperature?

The thermostat is the component that communicates with the heating elements and tells them when to stop. When it fails, the heating elements do not receive the correct signal – and therefore the oven heats too much, too little, or unevenly. In the experience of our technicians, about 40% of complaints about an oven that does not heat properly originate from a faulty thermostat, not a burnt heating element. Early detection saves the cost of an unnecessary visit.

Common causes of thermostat failure in sauter ovens:

• ✅ Prolonged use with repeated extreme heat
• ✅ Oily dirt that accumulates around the capillary probe
• ✅ Mechanical damage to the capillary tube during cleaning

Check before replacing: Turn the oven on to 180 degrees and place an oven thermometer inside. If the difference between the setting and the display exceeds 15 degrees, the thermostat is probably the problem.

What is the difference between an original thermostat and a non-original part?

The original sauter part 8032828 comes from a leading German manufacturer – the same manufacturer that supplied the component to the production line. Unlike non-original parts, the original part is guaranteed to meet the on-off cycle that the sauter oven specification requires. In our experience, non-original thermostats are often calibrated differently and produce a constant difference from the correct temperature.

Using a non-genuine part may also cause short circuits, damage the heating elements due to overheating, and lead to more expensive failures later.

🔍 Information Gain: The thermostat's capillary probe (the thin tube that reaches the baking chamber) is very sensitive. The most common mistake we see from inexperienced technicians is a sharp bend in the tube during installation. Even one bend causes the internal liquid volume to change and the temperature measurement to be incorrect.

📋 Technical specifications

✅ Compatible models

The part is suitable for the following Sauter models (ensure exact fit according to the E-Nr number on the model sticker):

• SHI11173E
• EHEG12421E

Where is the model sticker on a sauter oven? The E-Nr sticker is usually located on the inner door frame – open the oven door and check the inside of the metal frame.

🔧 How do you replace a thermostat in a sauter oven?

Replacing a thermostat in an oven is an advanced task that requires knowledge of electrical connections and dismantling the oven's front panel. Estimated time for an experienced technician: 30-60 minutes.

⚠️ Mandatory: Disconnect the oven from the power supply before any operation. Do not work on an oven that is plugged in.

General sequence of operations (for a qualified technician):

1. Unplug the oven from the power outlet and the wall socket.
2. Remove the front panel and/or temperature selector frame – depending on the oven model.
3. Document the location of the wire connections in a photo before disconnecting them.
4. Gently release the capillary sensor from the clip that holds it to the oven wall.
5. Disconnect the wires from the old thermostat.
6. Connect the wires to the new thermostat according to the documentation.
7. Carefully insert the sensor along the original path – No sharp bends
8. Assemble the board, connect to power, and perform a temperature test.

💡 Tip from the experts

From the experience of our technicians: Before replacing a thermostat, perform a simple test – put an oven thermometer in and check the temperature difference at three different points (150, 200, 250 degrees). If the difference is constant and consistent (e.g. always 20 degrees below), there is a chance that the thermostat is simply not calibrated and not necessarily broken. If the difference is random and varies – replacement is required. A 10-minute test that saves you from buying an unnecessary part.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Is it possible to tell if the thermostat is faulty before buying a new part?

Yes. Insert an oven thermometer (costs about 30-50 shekels at home improvement stores) and turn the oven on to 180 degrees. Wait 20 minutes after the light goes out and check the reading. A difference of more than 15 degrees from the setting indicates a thermostat that requires checking or replacement.

What is an E-Nr sticker and how do you find it on a sauter oven?

The E-Nr sticker is the model sticker for your oven and contains the exact model number (E-Nr) and serial number (FD). On Sauter ovens, the sticker is usually located on the inner door frame. Open the oven door and check the inside of the frame – usually in the lower right corner.

Is the 8032828 thermostat compatible with Logik models?

Yes. The 8032828 thermostat is also suitable for Logik models that have been identified as compatible. Always check the compatibility with the full E-Nr of your oven, as the models differ in installation configuration.
