Description
The Packard HS24A3414 is a 2 DPST-SPST Heat Sequencer designed to provide reliable, staged activation of electric heating elements in residential and light commercial electric furnaces and air handlers. By staggering the energizing of heating elements, this sequencer prevents simultaneous high-current draws at startup, protecting electrical circuits and extending the service life of heating components.
Key Features
- 2-circuit design with DPST and SPST switching configurations for versatile staging applications
- Engineered for use in electric furnaces and electric air handlers requiring sequenced element activation
- Helps reduce peak inrush current by staggering heating element startup
- Bimetal thermal actuator provides consistent, time-delayed switching action
- Direct OEM-style replacement for simplified installation and reduced downtime
- Packard quality construction for long-lasting, dependable performance in the field
Application
Heat sequencers are a critical component in electric forced-air heating systems. The HS24A3414 is suitable for use in electric furnaces where multiple heating elements must be staged on and off in sequence to balance electrical load, improve system efficiency, and prevent nuisance tripping of breakers or fuses.
