Supplier's note

  1. Technical Breakthroughs:

    • Bimetal Core: Enables ±2°C precision, outperforming traditional thermostats.
    • Bakelite Housing: 30% lighter than metal alternatives while maintaining heat resistance up to 180°C.
    • Adjustable Settings: Customizable thresholds reduce downtime by 25% in industrial laundry systems.
  2. Version Selection Guide:

    • Base Model: Best for standard steam irons (household use). Its 150°C limit balances safety and performance.
    • Advanced Model: Ideal for commercial irons requiring higher steam output (e.g., dry cleaners). The 180°C range extends fabric penetration.
    • Pro Model: Designed for heavy-duty industrial applications. The 200°C capability and 30k-cycle durability meet ISO 17025 standards for commercial laundries.

With the Pro version’s expanded temperature range, you can handle high-demand tasks like sanitizing garments, while its 60% faster response time reduces energy waste. Pair this with bakelite’s chemical resistance to ensure longevity in harsh environments.
