Heil Quaker ICP 1320552 Limit Switch
The Heil Quaker ICP 1320552 Limit Switch is a critical safety component designed for high-temperature monitoring in residential and light commercial furnaces. This OEM replacement part is engineered to open the electrical circuit when the internal plenum temperature reaches the 270?F to 290?F range, effectively preventing heat exchanger damage and ensuring system safety. As an automatic reset limit switch, it will close once the temperature cools to its differential setpoint (typically 20?F below the trip point), allowing the ignition sequence to resume without manual intervention.
For technicians servicing International Comfort Products (ICP) equipment, the 1320552 is a standard high limit control used across various furnace models, including those under the Tempstar, Comfortmaker, and Heil brand names. This part replaces older L290-20F switches and is built with a durable button-style housing for consistent thermal response. When diagnosing furnace short cycling or 1-flash/4-flash error codes, verifying the continuity and trip temperature of this ICP 1320552 switch is a standard troubleshooting step to identify airflow restrictions or heat exchanger failures.
Key Benefits
- Precise Thermal Protection: Calibrated to trip between 270-290?F to prevent critical overheating of the heat exchanger.
- Automatic Reset Functionality: Restores circuit continuity automatically after the system reaches safe operating temperatures.
- Broad ICP Compatibility: Direct fit for multiple brands within the International Comfort Products umbrella, including Heil, Quaker, and KeepRite.
- Standard OEM Form Factor: Features the standard button-style design and 2-wire terminal configuration for straightforward field replacement.
Common Questions
Why does my furnace shut off after only a few minutes of operation?
This is often caused by the 1320552 limit switch opening due to excessive heat. Common causes include a dirty air filter, a failing blower motor, or obstructed ductwork restricting necessary airflow across the heat exchanger.
Can I bypass this switch for testing purposes?
Technicians should never bypass a high limit switch during normal operation. Bypassing a safety control can lead to catastrophic heat exchanger failure or a fire hazard. Use a multimeter to check for continuity across the terminals while the switch is cool.
Is this switch compatible with my specific furnace model?
The Heil Quaker 1320552 is used in many ICP gas furnaces. Always verify the part number against your existing documentation or the stamping on the original switch to ensure the temperature rating matches your unit's specifications.
