OEM Carrier Discharge Gas Thermostat HN68GA242 for Model 06CCCY337

This OEM discharge gas thermostat (part number HN68GA242) is the factory-specified replacement for the Carrier 06CCCY337 compressor unit. The discharge gas thermostat monitors the temperature of the refrigerant gas leaving the compressor discharge port. When discharge temperatures exceed safe operating limits — typically caused by refrigerant undercharge, restricted airflow, or a failing compressor — this thermostat triggers a protective lockout to prevent catastrophic compressor damage. A failed or out-of-calibration discharge gas thermostat commonly presents as nuisance high-temperature lockouts, failure to restart after a fault, or — in the case of a thermostat that sticks open — undetected compressor overheating leading to compressor burnout.

• Specs: OEM Part No. HN68GA242 | Factory-calibrated discharge temperature setpoint | Direct compressor discharge line mount | Designed for Carrier 06CCCY337 compressor application
• OEM vs Generic: OEM thermostats are calibrated to exact factory trip and reset points. Aftermarket units frequently carry wider tolerance ranges, which can result in either premature nuisance trips or — more dangerously — delayed protection that allows compressor temperatures to reach damaging levels.
• Install difficulty: 3/5 — Requires system pump-down and refrigerant recovery before accessing the discharge line. Tools needed: manifold gauge set, refrigerant recovery machine, torque wrench, and leak detection equipment. Recommended for qualified HVAC/R technicians only.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Orders placed before 3 PM EST ship same business day from our stocked warehouse.

Compatibility: Designed specifically for the Carrier 06CCCY337 compressor unit. Always verify the OEM part number HN68GA242 against your unit's data plate and parts breakdown before ordering. Our technical team is available to confirm fitment — contact us before you order if you have any questions.
