The BRIVIS 90° Overheat Switch (Part Number: B009361) is a safety component designed for Brivis ducted heating systems. This switch is critical for preventing overheating by cutting off power to the heater if the temperature exceeds a safe threshold (typically 90°C). It ensures the system operates safely and protects against potential fire hazards or damage to the unit.
Temperature Rating: Activates at approximately 90°C (194°F) to shut down the heater in case of overheating.
Safety Function: Acts as a fail-safe to prevent damage to the heating system and surrounding components.
Compatibility: Designed for use in Brivis ducted heaters, ensuring proper fit and function.
Durability: Built to withstand high temperatures and repeated cycling.
Tripping Frequently: If the overheat switch trips often, it could indicate an underlying issue such as restricted airflow, a dirty filter, or a faulty thermostat.
Failure to Reset: If the switch fails to reset, it may be damaged and require replacement.
Wear and Tear: Over time, the switch can wear out due to constant exposure to high temperatures.
Turn Off Power: Ensure the power to the heating system is turned off at the mains to avoid electrical hazards.
Locate the Switch: The overheat switch is typically located near the heat exchanger or in the ducting system.
Disconnect Wires: Carefully disconnect the wires connected to the old switch.
Remove Old Switch: Unscrew or unclip the old overheat switch from its mounting.
Install New Switch: Secure the new Brivis B009361 switch in place and reconnect the wires.
Test the System: Restore power and test the heater to ensure the new switch is functioning correctly.
Regularly clean or replace air filters to ensure proper airflow and prevent overheating.
Inspect the heating system for blockages or obstructions in the ducts.
Schedule annual servicing to keep the system in optimal condition.
If you're unsure about replacing the overheat switch yourself, consult a qualified HVAC technician for assistance. Always prioritize safety when working with heating systems.
