Application
This limit switch is used in Rheem and Ruud furnaces and heating appliances to monitor operating temperatures and protect heat exchangers, burners, and other critical components from overheating. When the air temperature reaches the 180°F open setpoint, the switch interrupts the circuit to shut down the burner or heating element. Once temperatures drop back to the 140°F close setpoint, the auto-reset function restores normal operation without manual intervention.
