The pressure switch is a critical combustion safety device. When the inducer (draft) motor starts, it pulls a vacuum through a small sensing tube connected to this switch. If — and only if — the switch senses adequate negative pressure (proper venting), its internal contacts close and allow the control board to energize the igniter and open the gas valve. If the vent is blocked, the inducer is weak, or condensate has clogged the drain, the switch stays open and locks out the burners to prevent a dangerous condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCommon failure symptoms include the furnace inducer running but the burners never lighting, a short-cycling burner that drops out under load, or a flashing fault code indicating an open or stuck pressure switch. A cracked sensing tube, a corroded diaphragm, or a switch that has lost its calibration will all trigger these faults.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpec\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1178417\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTubing Air Pressure Switch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eICP \/ Tempstar \/ Heil\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFunction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDraft \/ vent proving safety switch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eControl Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24 VAC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFitment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOEM direct replacement\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct OEM replacement for the ICP \/ Tempstar \/ Heil WPG3244040LKC1 packaged gas\/electric unit and related WPG-series cabinets that use part 1178417.
