The Multiquip 23725-28 Thermostat is a genuine OEM component designed for WRS5200 and WRSPUDF ride-on roller screeds. As a direct OEM replacement, this thermostat meets the original design specifications set for these machines, giving you confidence that the part will fit and function exactly as intended. Compatible with the WRS5200 and WRSPUDF series, this is the correct part to specify when servicing the engine cooling system on your Multiquip roller screed. Order part number 23725-28 from DHS Equipment to keep your machine running at the right operating temperature.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Temperature Calibration — Opens and closes at the precise coolant temperature threshold engineered for these screeds, preventing under-cooling or overheating.
- Drop-In Engine Cooling System Fit — Matches the original housing seat and coolant flow path, so installation requires no reworking of hose connections or housing clearances.
- Confirmed Fitment for WRS5200 and WRSPUDF — Verified compatible with both standard and dual-fuel ride-on roller screed models in the Whiteman WRS series.
- Protects Engine from Thermal Stress — A correctly functioning thermostat reaches operating temperature faster, reducing cylinder wear and protecting the engine during extended screed runs.
- Fuel System Safety Relevance — On the dual-fuel WRSPUDF, maintaining proper coolant temperature is especially important for stable combustion; a failed thermostat can cause erratic engine behavior across fuel modes.
A thermostat regulates engine coolant temperature by blocking flow to the radiator until the engine reaches its optimal operating range, then opening to allow coolant to circulate and shed excess heat. In a ride-on roller screed like the WRS5200 or WRSPUDF, this keeps the engine in the narrow temperature window where it runs cleanly and efficiently across long paving passes. When a thermostat sticks open, the engine runs cold and burns fuel inefficiently; when it sticks closed, coolant cannot circulate and the engine overheats — either condition shortens engine life and disrupts the screeding operation.
