Carrier 338096-711 Limit Switch
The Carrier 338096-711 Limit Switch is a critical safety component engineered for residential furnaces within the Carrier, Bryant, and Payne family of systems. This L195-20F limit switch functions as a high-limit security device, monitoring the internal temperature of the heat exchanger or burner assembly. Designed as a normally closed (NC) circuit, the Carrier 338096-711 is calibrated to trip and open the electrical circuit when the ambient temperature reaches 195°F. This action immediately interrupts the heating cycle to prevent equipment damage or hazardous conditions caused by restricted airflow or excessive heat buildup. As an automatic reset furnace limit switch, it will re-close and restore the circuit once the system cools to approximately 175°F (a 20°F differential), allowing the unit to resume normal operation without manual intervention. This OEM replacement part ensures precise thermal cycling and long-term reliability in high-demand HVAC environments.
Key Benefits:- Precision Thermal Safety: Factory-set trip point at 195°F provides accurate protection against furnace overheating.
- Automatic Reset Functionality: Closes the circuit once the temperature drops by 20°F, eliminating the need for manual resets during transient temperature spikes.
- Genuine OEM Compatibility: Specifically designed for Carrier furnace repair, ensuring exact fit and performance in Bryant and Payne HVAC systems.
- Durable Construction: Built with high-grade materials to withstand continuous thermal cycling in residential heating applications.
- Plug-and-Play Installation: Features standard dimensions and mounting for rapid field replacement by service technicians.
What causes a Carrier 338096-711 limit switch to trip frequently?
Repeated tripping is often a sign of restricted airflow, such as a clogged furnace filter, blocked return vents, or a failing blower motor, causing the heat exchanger to exceed the 195°F safety threshold.
Is the 338096-711 limit switch compatible with other brands?
Yes, this part is the direct OEM replacement for various residential units manufactured by the Carrier Corporation, including those labeled under the Bryant and Payne brands.
Does this switch require a manual reset button?
No, the L195-20F model is an automatic reset switch. It will reset the heating circuit autonomously once the temperature falls below the 175°F differential set point.
