Trane SWT1696 Flow Switch
Identify and replace faulty temperature-sensitive safety components with the Trane SWT1696, a high-precision Reverse Flow Switch engineered for specific furnace and air handler applications. This genuine OEM Trane replacement part is essential for monitoring airflow direction and preventing unsafe operation during reverse flow conditions. Designed for tight tolerances, the SWT1696 features an operational temperature rating where it opens at 140°F (60°C) and automatically resets, closing at 130°F (54.4°C). This specific thermal response curve ensures critical protection against overheating and system failure in localized heat zones. Also listed under the alternative part number SWT01696, this component is 100% identical in form, fit, and function. For technicians servicing Trane and American Standard residential or light commercial equipment, utilizing this HVAC safety switch ensures the control circuit maintains the integrity of the original factory sequence of operation.
Key Benefits
- Precision Thermal Calibration: Calibrated to open exactly at 140°F to intercept abnormal airflow issues before they cause damage.
- Automatic System Reset: Automatically re-engages at 130°F, minimizing downtime after the system returns to safe operating temperatures.
- OEM Compatibility: Fits a wide range of Trane furnace models, including those in the AUD and TUD series, ensuring seamless wiring integration.
- Safety Compliance: Crucial for maintaining the UL or ETL listing of the host equipment by using specified safety components.
Common Questions
Is the SWT1696 compatible with the SWT01696?
Yes, those part numbers are interchangeable. Both represent the same reverse flow temperature switch with the 140/130 thermal profile.
What happens if this switch fails?
A failed flow switch typically results in a lockout code on the furnace control board, preventing the burner or blower from engaging to protect the heat exchanger from overheating.
Can I test this switch for continuity?
Yes, technicians can test for continuity across the terminals. At room temperature, the switch should be in the closed position to complete the safety circuit.
