Mounted on the heat exchanger bulkhead, this normally-closed high-limit switch continuously monitors supply-air temperature and interrupts the gas valve and ignition circuit if the furnace overheats — protecting the heat exchanger, blower, and your home from unsafe conditions. A failed or nuisance-tripping limit is one of the most common causes of intermittent no-heat and short-cycling faults.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart type: Primary high-limit temperature control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFunction: Auto-reset thermal safety limit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContacts: Normally closed, opens on temperature rise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits: Goodman \/ Amana AMES961005CNAA and select 96% furnaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting: Factory bulkhead\/plate style\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Goodman (Daikin) OEM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOEM vs. Generic\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eOEM 20162904\u003c\/strong\u003e is factory-calibrated to the exact trip temperature specified for this furnace, ensuring correct safety operation and preserving your equipment warranty.
