Robertshaw 5300-615 Electric Thermostat Kit
The Robertshaw 5300-615 is an electric thermostat kit designed for temperature control in air conditioning and refrigeration systems. It includes a 72 inch capillary tube for remote sensing installation. The kit suits HVAC technicians servicing commercial or residential cooling equipment. New condition ensures reliable operation from first use.
Suited for systems needing remote bulb sensing
This kit fits applications where the thermostat body must sit away from the temperature source. The 3/8 inch sensing bulb diameter and 4 1/2 inch length match standard wells in many units. Installers requiring a different capillary length or bulb size should look at other models. The 2 inch stem length may not suit all mounting configurations.
Capillary tube length 72 inches
The 72 inch capillary tube is the primary specification that determines fit. It sets the maximum distance between the thermostat control and the sensing bulb location. Verify this length matches the routing path in your equipment before purchase. Model 5300-615 identifies this specific kit configuration.

Questions about this item
How do I verify the 72 in capillary tube is functioning correctly after installation?
After setup, observe the thermostat cycling the compressor on and off at the set temperature; the 72 in capillary transmits bulb temperature changes to the switch mechanism, so consistent cycling confirms proper operation.
What components are included in the Robertshaw 5300-615 kit and what must be purchased separately?
The kit supplies the electric thermostat body, a 72 in capillary tube, a 3/8 in diameter sensing bulb measuring 4 1/2 in long, and a 2 in stem; mounting hardware, wiring connectors and any required adapters are not included.
Which Robertshaw thermostat version should I choose for a system needing a 72 in capillary reach?
Select the 5300-615 model when the distance between the control location and the sensing point requires the full 72 in capillary tube length; shorter-capillary variants would not span that distance.
