National Comfort Products 14208320 Limit Switch
Professional-grade furnace maintenance requires specific safety tolerances, and the National Comfort Products 14208320 High Limit Switch is engineered to meet those exact thermal requirements. This OEM National Comfort Products part serves as a critical safety interlock, featuring an L160-60F temperature rating. This means the switch is calibrated to break the electrical circuit at 160°F and automatically reset once the temperature drops by a 60°F differential. Designed for high-limit protection in NCP heating units, this disc-type limit control prevents heat exchanger damage and hazardous operating conditions by monitoring internal plenum temperatures. When diagnosing a furnace limit switch tripping or a blower motor that runs continuously without heat, replacing the faulty sensor with this fixed-point temperature control restores the system to factory safety specifications. Its bimetal construction ensures precision response times and long-term cycling reliability for high-static pressure applications.
Key Benefits for Technicians:
- Exact OEM Specifications: Eliminates the risks associated with universal aftermarket switches by matching the 160-degree trip point and 60-degree differential.
- System Safety Integrity: Provides essential high temperature cutout protection to prevent melting components or fire hazards in NCP air handlers and furnaces.
- Direct Fit Installation: Standard mounting footprint and terminal spacing allow for a rapid swap during service calls, reducing labor time.
- Automatic Reset Logic: The L160-60F switch resets automatically, allowing for system troubleshooting after the high-heat event has been mitigated.
Common Questions:
What does the L160-60F rating signify for this limit switch?
The "L" indicates it is a Limit control. "160" is the temperature in Fahrenheit at which the switch opens (stops the burner), and "60" is the differential, meaning it will close (reset) when the temperature drops to 100°F.
How do I know if the NCP 14208320 is the correct replacement?
Check the stamping on your existing switch. If it shows 14208320 or L160-60, this is the direct OEM replacement. It is frequently used in National Comfort Products "Comfort Pack" units and specialized thru-the-wall heating systems.
Can this switch be used in cooling-only applications?
No, this is a safety limit specifically designed for heating cycles to monitor the furnace or heater core temperature. Using a limit switch with the wrong thermal profile can lead to premature cycling or unsafe operation.
