Bilbee Controls designs, engineers, and manufactures conduction baseplate bimetallic thermostats as well as the traditional Model B-200 conduction type thermostats. Our thermostats offer little or no overshoot of the temperature setting on the initial warm-up cycle or on recovery, a cycling differential sufficiently close for the application, and fast response to sudden heat loads and full recovery to temperature setting. This is made possible by carefully designing the device with the proper balance of thermal relationships between the thermostat, heating element, and the heated mass. Our conduction type thermostats are used in consumer products like buffet tables, toasters, roasters, hot dog machines, waffle irons, and fudge cups. They are also used in industrial equipment such as drum heaters, laminators, sealing machines, meat packing equipment, t-shirt graphic presses, dry cleaning presses, and more. Originally American General Thermostat, Bilbee Controls is the result of several company shifts over the years. Bilbee was purchased by Rostra Vernatherm in 2012 and moved its manufacturing operations to Bristol, CT. Bilbee and Rostra Vernatherm share a business model of high quality USA-made products and superior customer service. Let our engineers help you design your thermal control solution; we will take care with the details that others overlook.

RTD Sensors

An RTD, resistance temperature detector, is a passive temperature sensing device that operates on the principle that the resistance of a metal changes as the temperature changes. The electrical current that passes through the element...

Thermistors

A thermistor, a shortened version of the term thermal resistor, is a passive component whose resistance changes as the temperature in a system changes. Thus they serve as an inexpensive, accurate, and dynamic method for measuring temperature...

Thermocouples

A thermocouple is a transducer that converts thermal energy into electrical energy and is constructed by joining wires made from dissimilar metals to form a junction. Voltage is produced when the temperature at the junction changes...
