One for the control thermostat, the other for the over temp. Hope this helps. **Q: I have a 10 gal reliance 501 water heater with a WH7 upper switch. It looks like this one, Reliance 9000509-045, but size does not match** A: It may work provided the voltage and number of elements are the same but if the part numbers are different then I wouldn't advise substitution without consulting an expert, which I am not. Sorry I can't be of more help. **Q: Can I use this for a 240 V single element water heater? Is it rated for 125 or 240 V, or does that even matter?** A: As far as I know, this thermostat is intended for 220-240 volt single element water heaters. I don't know if it will work on 110-125 volt water heaters. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect replacement *by M***F on June 26, 2025* Product was as described, easy to install, wired it in, has been working like a charm. I’m very thorough in my work, it only took about 15, 20 minutes. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works perfect *by M***R on January 23, 2024* Easy to install. TURN OFF POWER first! Just a few wires and it was done. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Replacement thermostat on Sears water heater works fine. *by E***D on October 2, 2014* As described. Identical (same mfg and part number) to the original Sears thermostat. Included the clear plastic safety cover. The temperature control knob is shorter than original, and requires small screw driver to adjust. Could not use a push-in wire connect as the square washers were omitted. Just curved the wire around the screws to connect. Has been working OK. ## Frequently Bought Together - AO Smith Reliance 9000509-045 Single Element Electric Thermostat, Pack of 1, Black - Camco 09883 5" Residential Screw-In Water Heater Element Wrench, Multi, Single Unit - Camco 1500W 120V Water Heater Element | Screw-In Type | Low Watt Density (02463) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tw/products/4147562-reliance-9000509-045-single-element-electric-thermostat](https://www.desertcart.tw/products/4147562-reliance-9000509-045-single-element-electric-thermostat) --- *Product available on Desertcart Taiwan* *Store origin: TW* *Last updated: 2026-09-08*
