Heil Quaker ICP 1173843 Pressure Switch
The Heil Quaker ICP 1173843 Pressure Switch is an essential safety component designed for precise HVAC pressure monitoring. This OEM furnace pressure switch serves as a critical inducer limit switch, ensuring that the draft inducer motor is moving sufficient air to vent combustion gases safely before allowing the ignition sequence to proceed. Rated as a 95/50# low pressure switch, it operates on a specific setpoint to maintain system integrity under varying load conditions. Engineered for ICP replacement parts compatibility, this switch features a robust diaphragm and high-grade electrical contacts to prevent premature failure from carbon tracking or mechanical fatigue. Experienced technicians know that a faulty Heil furnace pressure switch is a common culprit for "no-heat" calls, and utilizing a genuine 1173843 pressure switch ensures the calibration matches the factory-specified inches of water column requirements. This prevents the frequent nuisance trips or safety lockouts associated with non-spec universal alternatives.
Key Benefits:- Precise Calibration: Factory-set at 95/50# specs to ensure exact safety cut-outs and reliable burner ignition.
- Direct OEM Fit: Specifically designed for Heil, Quaker, and International Comfort Products (ICP) equipment to eliminate mounting and port alignment issues.
- Enhanced Durability: Constructed with materials resistant to the heat and moisture common in furnace vestibules.
- System Protection: Acts as a primary fail-safe to prevent operation during venting or inducer malfunctions.
- How do I verify if the 1173843 switch is the problem? Use a digital manometer to check the actual pressure at the port. If the inducer is pulling the correct vacuum but the switch fails to close (check continuity), the internal diaphragm or contacts have likely failed.
- Is this switch a manual or automatic reset? This is an automatic reset switch that will cycle based on the detected pressure within the flue or inducer housing.
- Can I use a universal switch instead? While universal switches exist, they often lack the precise 95/50# calibration required for this specific Heil/ICP sequence of operation, leading to potential safety hazards or intermittent codes.
