Lochinvar & A.O. Smith 100278092 Switch
The Lochinvar & A.O. Smith 100278092 Switch is a critical safety and operational component designed for high-performance commercial boilers and water heaters. As a factory-authorized OEM flow switch, this assembly ensures the burner circuit only energizes when adequate water velocity is detected, protecting the heat exchanger from dry-fire conditions and thermal stress. The unit comes integrated with a durable brass tee specifically sized for CC120 and CCN120 series equipment, streamlining the installation process by eliminating the need for field-fabricated fittings. This boiler flow detection assembly uses a precision-calibrated paddle and reed mechanism to provide a reliable electrical signal to the control board, maintaining system integrity even in high-demand hydronic applications. For technicians, installing a replacement flow switch that meets the exact specifications of the original 100278092 part is essential for maintaining UL compliance and ensuring the long-term reliability of A.O. Smith water heaters and Lochinvar heating systems.
Key Benefits:
- Precise Flow Verification: Prevents equipment operation during low-flow or NO-flow states to avoid catastrophic heat exchanger failure.
- Integrated Brass Tee: High-grade brass tee assembly provides superior corrosion resistance and simplified threaded connection for 1-inch plumbing.
- Direct OEM Compatibility: Engineered specifically for Lochinvar CC120 models, ensuring exact electrical and mechanical fit without modifications.
- Robust Safety Control: Critical for meeting hydronic system safety requirements and maintaining automated process control in commercial environments.
Common Questions:
- What happens if the flow switch paddle is blocked by scale? Scale or sediment buildup can prevent the paddle from moving, leading to a "No Flow" error code on the boiler controller even when the pump is running. Regular inspection of the plumbing assembly is recommended.
- Is this switch compatible with glycol-based systems? Yes, the brass and mechanical internal components are designed to withstand typical HVAC water/glycol mixtures found in closed-loop heating applications.
- Can the sensitivity of the switch be adjusted? While many 100278092 switches are factory-calibrated for specific GPM thresholds, technicians should verify the minimum activation flow rate against the appliance’s technical manual during startup.
