Description
The Carrier 338096-709 L215-20F Limit Switch is an essential part of Carrier HVAC systems which control temperature of the building. The switch is small in size, 2 inches long, 1.5 inches wide and 1 inch high which makes it suitable to install in small spaces within the equipment. As a limit switch, its purpose is to initiate an on/off operation when the temperature hits a certain threshold. In this case the L215-20F means that the switch turns off the system when the temperature goes up to 215°F and turns on the system when the temperature is below 20°F. This is safety mechanism that helps in avoiding over heating and also protecting the HVAC unit.
