  • $70.00


The Williams P323664 Safety Switch is a critical OEM replacement part designed for high-limit temperature monitoring in Williams enclosed front vented room heaters. This vent safety switch is engineered to break the electrical circuit and shut down the burner if flue temperatures reach the 250F threshold, preventing hazardous downdrafts or obstruction-related overheating. Featuring a manual reset mechanism, this SPST furnace limit control ensures the system remains offline until a technician can verify the cause of the high-limit trip, providing essential protection for both natural gas and liquid propane furnace configurations.

Built for direct compatibility with Williams heater models such as the 5001521A, 5001522A, 6501521A, and 650122A, the P323664 utilizes a robust metallic housing and precision internal bimetal disc for accurate high-limit cutout. As a senior HVAC technician, you know that maintaining combustion safety depends on OEM-spec response times. This limit switch provides a drop-in manual/remote (M/R) operation fit, securing the equipment against thermal runaway and ensuring compliance with manufacturer safety protocols.

Key Benefits for the Contractor:
  • Precise 250F Cutout: Calibrated specifically to Williams furnace specifications to prevent heat exchanger damage and venting failures.
  • Manual Reset Safety: Prevents automatic cycling of a faulted system, requiring a physical reset after troubleshooting.
  • Multi-Fuel Compatibility: Verified for use in both LP and Natural Gas vented wall heaters.
  • Direct OEM Fit: Replaces older part numbers and fits 500 and 650 series enclosed front models without modification.
Common Questions & Technical Support:
  • Why does my Williams vent safety switch keep tripping? Trips are usually caused by a blocked vent, improper draft, or excessive heat buildup in the combustion chamber. Always inspect the vent cap and flue pipe for obstructions.
  • Can I bypass the P323664 during troubleshooting? Never bypass a safety limit control during permanent operation. Temporary jumping is for diagnostic purposes only and must be conducted by a licensed HVAC contractor.
  • Is the P323664 compatible with gravity wall furnaces? This switch is specifically cataloged for enclosed front vented room heaters; verify your specific model number against the 5001521A/6501522A series before installation.
