Bonjour, non ce fusible thermique n'est pas compatible, la température de déclenchement n'est pas la bonne, de plus la taille de celui-ci est trop large et le branchement ne comporte pas les deux connecteurs.

Si vous avez besoin du modèle correct, veuillez nous contacter ici: https://caplou.com

Belle journée
