Furnace Plenum High-Limit Switch For: Carrier, Bryant HH12ZB220, SHL517, ERHH12ZB220

Safety first: A qualified HVAC technician should disconnect and verify isolation of electrical power before service.

Restore safe furnace operation with this ERP replacement plenum high-limit switch for compatible Carrier and Bryant furnace plenum applications. The Supco gas-furnace limit table maps HH12ZB220 to SHL517: it opens at 220°F, closes at 170°F, with a 50°F differential, SPST. Repeated high-limit shutdowns require diagnosis of overheating, airflow, and the limit control. Verify probe insertion length, mounting, terminals, and load rating against the original before ordering. A similar temperature marking alone does not establish fit.
