Dayton 6EDY7 Line-Voltage Mechanical Thermostat
The Dayton 6EDY7 is a line-voltage mechanical thermostat rated from 24 to 600 VAC with an SPDT switch that opens or closes on temperature rise. It controls heating or cooling equipment across a -30 °F to 90 °F range and includes a remote sensing bulb for flexible placement. The unit is not programmable and uses a simple mechanical dial for set-point adjustment.
Installers needing a basic, wide-voltage controller
This thermostat suits electricians and HVAC technicians who want a single device for 120 VAC or 240 VAC loads up to 16 A and 8 A respectively. It will not satisfy users who require programmable schedules, digital read-outs or smart-home connectivity. Buyers needing multi-stage control or communication protocols should look at a different product class.
SPDT switch action: open/close on rise
The defining specification is the single-pole double-throw switch that changes state when temperature rises, with an adjustable differential of 3.5 °F to 20 °F. This behaviour determines whether the thermostat energises heating on a fall or cooling on a rise, so verify the required action before purchase.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the 16 A at 120 VAC or 8 A at 240 VAC rating for my circuit?
Match the rating to your supply voltage; the thermostat handles 16 A at 120 VAC and 8 A at 240 VAC, both within the 24 to 600 VAC range.
What does the -30 °F to 90 °F control range mean once the thermostat is installed?
It will switch your heating or cooling equipment on and off anywhere between -30 °F and 90 °F, with an adjustable differential of 3.5 °F to 20 °F.
How does the SPDT switch and 24 to 600 VAC rating limit what I can control?
The single SPDT switch opens or closes on temperature rise, so it can directly control one load up to 16 A at 120 VAC or 8 A at 240 VAC within the 24 to 600 VAC window.
