Hayward CHXPRS1931 Pressure Switch
Part Number: CHXPRS1931
Description
A genuine pressure switch designed for select Hayward gas pool heaters. It monitors water flow and pressure: if the heater does not receive adequate flow, the switch will shut down the heater to prevent damage and ensure safe operation.
Compatibility & Fitment
- Compatible with Hayward CZ series heaters (150-400 models) and other gas pool heater models requiring a flow/pressure switch.
- Use when the existing pressure switch is cracked, fails to actuate, or causes the heater to lock out due to improper operation.
Features & Specifications
- Channel open line switch (flow/pressure type) for heater safety.
- Compact design with mounting threads suitable for heater combustion chamber or flow sensor mount.
- Designed to meet OEM safety standards for Hayward heater installations.
Installation Notes
Shut off power and fuel supply to the heater. Remove the existing switch, clean the mounting port, ensure proper thread seal and torque the new CHXPRS1931 switch to manufacturer specifications. Restore flow and power, then test the heater through a full cycle verifying correct operation and no fault codes.
Maintenance Tip
During the heater’s annual service, check operation of the pressure switch, inspect for adhesive corrosion or debris, and verify proper actuation. Replace the switch if you observe frequent lock-outs, failure to reset, or physical damage to ensure safe heater recovery.
