Modified definition according to EN 14597 (former DIN 3440)
“Temperature control devices and temperature limiters for
heat generating systems”
After introduction of this new standard (2005-12) the definitions

release (EN14597, 2009-1) a temperature limiter TB is no longer
considered as operating equipment (as a temperature monitor TW)
but as protective equipment (!) which needs to meet higher
requirements
The most important requirement for a TB has now been added:
Any device or component must be failsafe and the supply to the
plant switched off!
