Icp 1176908 Limit Switch 235 Degrees F Any Orientation

Product Description

The INTERNATIONAL COMFORT PRODUCTS 1176908 is a high-temperature limit switch designed to protect gas furnace heat exchangers and burner assemblies from overheating conditions. When supply air temperatures exceed the rated threshold of 235 degrees F, the switch opens the circuit, shutting down the burner to prevent equipment damage and safety hazards. The 1176908 mounts in any orientation, giving technicians flexibility during installation or direct replacement. It is an OEM part, matching original factory specifications for reliable, code-compliant service in residential gas furnaces.

This limit switch is used in residential forced-air gas furnace applications where high-limit protection is required on the heat exchanger or plenum assembly. It is rated to trip at 235 degrees F and is designed to restore automatically or require manual reset depending on system design. Compatible models listed by the manufacturer include N8MSL1352422A3, G8MVL1352422A1, and F8MVL1352422A1. HVAC technicians performing maintenance, diagnostic, or warranty service on these units will find this part a direct OEM match.

Installation Notes

Limit switch replacement on gas furnaces must be performed by a licensed HVAC technician in accordance with local codes and the IFGC. Before servicing, shut off power at the disconnect and turn off the gas supply to the unit. Verify the root cause of the high-limit trip before installing the replacement switch, as repeated tripping indicates an underlying airflow or combustion issue that must be resolved. Restore power only after all connections are secure and the furnace cabinet panels are in place.
