Can anyone help with this?

I don't know whether it's 175 or 75?

Both seem available for these things.

I have a 9 fin Dimplex "De Vielle" with 4 settings. (Off), 800W,1200W&2000W, When I ran it on test 12 years ago on its max 2000W setting, it averaged 1500W with the TCO cutting in/out occasionally, it was certainly operating well above 75C as the rad surface temperature used to reach 110C.
Other readings taken at that time.....
With Dimplex on setting 1 (800 watts) the rad surface temperature is ~~ 72C
With Dimplex on setting 2 (1200 watts) the rad surface temperature is ~~ 96C
Heater will run continuously at both settings.
Heating Surface is approx 1.2 M2
