Description
The Carrier HH18HA545 is an OEM high-limit safety switch designed to protect Carrier furnaces from overheating conditions. Designated L145-20F, this limit switch is engineered to monitor heat exchanger temperatures and interrupt the burner circuit when unsafe temperature thresholds are reached, safeguarding both the equipment and the occupants.
How It Works
The L145-20F designation defines the switch’s operating parameters: the switch opens (trips) at 145°F to shut down the burner, and resets (closes) automatically once the temperature drops by 20°F to approximately 125°F. This automatic reset function restores normal furnace operation once safe temperatures are re-established, minimizing downtime while maintaining reliable protection.
