The \u003cstrong\u003ehigh pressure switch (312926-252, 670\/470 PSI)\u003c\/strong\u003e monitors the high-side refrigerant circuit and opens the compressor circuit if pressure exceeds the 670 PSI cutout threshold, protecting against refrigerant overcharge, blocked condenser airflow, or failed condenser fan motor. The \u003cstrong\u003elow pressure switch (312926-258, 55\/23 PSI)\u003c\/strong\u003e monitors the low-side and opens the circuit when pressure drops below 23 PSI, guarding against refrigerant undercharge, a restricted metering device, or evaporator freeze-up. When either switch fails or trips without resetting, the system will enter a fault lockout — the unit won't cool or heat, and fault codes pointing to high- or low-pressure trips are common symptoms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Numbers \u0026amp; Specs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 312926-252 High Pressure Switch — 670 PSI cutout \/ 470 PSI reset | 312926-258 Low Pressure Switch — 55 PSI cutout \/ 23 PSI reset | Both are genuine Carrier Factory Authorized Parts (FAP)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM vs Generic:\u003c\/strong\u003e OEM switches use factory-calibrated setpoints with tight pressure tolerances. Generic aftermarket switches frequently drift off setpoint, causing nuisance trips or — worse — failing to open during a real over-pressure event, risking compressor damage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstall Difficulty: 3\/5\u003c\/strong\u003e — Refrigerant circuit work requires an EPA 608 certification. Tools needed: manifold gauge set, multimeter, refrigerant recovery unit, 1\/4\" flare fittings, wire strippers. Always recover refrigerant before replacing a pressure switch on the high-side port. Low-side switch replacement follows the same procedure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-year OEM manufacturer warranty on both switches.
