Trane SWT2968 Pressure switch
The Trane SWT2968 Pressure Switch is an essential OEM industrial control designed for high-precision air pressure monitoring in residential and commercial HVAC units. This Single Pole Single Throw (SPST) switch features a narrow differential, specifically calibrated to open at -1.36" W.C. and close at -1.55" W.C., ensuring safe and efficient furnace or blower operation. Designed with a robust brass body and stainless steel diaphragm, the SWT2968 provides reliable performance even in rigorous environments. It comes equipped with 1/4" quick-connect terminals and a barbed connection for seamless integration into existing vacuum lines. As a genuine Trane replacement part, this pressure sensing switch (often cross-referenced as SWT02968) is critical for verifying proper combustion airflow and protecting heat exchangers from overheating. Technicians favor this component for its drop-in compatibility with popular Trane and American Standard model series, including the TDC, TDX, and TUX furnace families.
Key Benefits- Precise Pressure Response: Factory-set to open at -1.36" and close at -1.55" water column for exact system safety verification.
- Industrial-Grade Build: Features a durable stainless steel diaphragm and brass body to withstand heat and vibration.
- Direct OEM Replacement: Ensures full electrical and mechanical compatibility with Trane and American Standard HVAC equipment.
- Pilot Duty Efficiency: Rated for 28 VA Pilot Duty at 24 VAC, facilitating reliable signal transmission to the control board.
- Streamlined Installation: Standard 1/4" x .032 terminals and barbed hose ports allow for rapid field replacement.
What happens if the pressure switch fails to close?
If the Trane SWT2968 does not close at the -1.55" W.C. mark, the ignition sequence will be interrupted, preventing the burners from firing as a safety precaution against inadequate venting.
Will this work as a substitute for other pressure ratings?
No. Pressure switches are safety-critical components. You must match the specific "Open" and "Close" settings to ensure the blower motor is moving sufficient air for safe combustion.
Is the SWT2968 compatible with various furnace brands?
While primarily designed for Trane and American Standard units, it serves as a direct 1.36/1.55 replacement for any system requiring these exact SPST specifications and electrical ratings.
