Description
The Lennox 88M98 Low-Pressure Switch is one of the safety devices required in an HVAC system which applies a control on the pressure of the refrigerant. This switch is designed for use with air conditioners and heat pumps and turns the device on or off depending on the pressure to protect it. The switch turns off the electrical circuit of the compressor when refrigerant pressure is low to prevent operation during dangerous conditions. This preventive method shields the compressor from damage that may be occasioned by low refrigerant charge or leakage. In this way, Low-Pressure Switch enhances the reliability of the system, raises energy efficiency, and increases the service life of critical HVAC components due to proper pressure regulation.
