It is a switch that opens and closes at set temperatures, the low limit on a large number of pellet stoves tells the convection blower to turn on when the temperature it senses exceeds a certain temperature and to turn off the combustion and convection blower when the temperature it senses is below a certain temperature. The difference between the turn on and shut off temperature is usually about 20 to 30 degrees.
A low limit snap disk is usually located somewhere against the exhaust path.
