Raypak 005899F Thermal Cut-Off Fuse / Fusible Link (Rollout Safety) – Replacement Kit
The Raypak 005899F is a safety thermal cut-off fuse (fusible link) used on select Raypak pool and spa heaters. It is designed to open the safety circuit permanently if excessive heat conditions occur in the burner/firebox area, helping protect the heater from damage caused by abnormal combustion or flame rollout conditions.

When to Replace
- Heater will not fire and troubleshooting indicates an open thermal fuse/fusible link
- Visible heat damage, discoloration, or brittle/cracked fuse body
- Safety circuit opens after a heat/combustion event and the fuse will not reset
Important Safety Notes
- Do not bypass a thermal cut-off fuse. If it opened, the heater likely experienced an unsafe condition that must be corrected.
- If the new fuse opens again, stop operation and inspect for root causes such as restricted airflow/venting, blocked burners, debris, improper gas pressure, or combustion issues.
Installation Notes
- Shut off power and gas to the heater before service, and allow the unit to cool completely.
- Replace the fuse in the same location and orientation as the original, using the proper mounting hardware and secure electrical connections.
- After replacement, verify normal ignition and stable flame characteristics before leaving the heater in service.

Installation & Maintenance Tips
- Keep the heater cabinet and combustion air openings clear of leaves, dust, and insects to reduce overheating and rollout risk.
- Inspect venting (where applicable) for obstruction and proper termination clearances.
- Maintain proper water flow and clean filtration—overheating and short-cycling can contribute to repeated safety events.
- If you have repeated nuisance shutdowns, check gas pressure, burner cleanliness, and combustion setup before replacing additional parts.
