Description
The Carrier HH12ZB280 is a factory-engineered insulated limit switch designed to protect furnaces and heating systems from dangerous overtemperature conditions. With a fixed trip point of 280°F and a 40°F differential, this switch automatically opens the circuit when the heat exchanger or plenum temperature reaches the set limit, then resets once the temperature drops back to a safe operating range — providing reliable, automatic thermal protection.
The 3-inch insulated insertion design allows for secure mounting in ductwork or furnace plenum applications while the insulated construction helps prevent nuisance trips and protects wiring from radiant heat. This is a genuine Carrier OEM replacement part, ensuring a precise fit and dependable performance in compatible Carrier heating systems.
