Replacement High Limit Switch – Compatible with Hired-Hand Super Saver Heaters
Ensure the safety and continuous operation of your poultry heating system with the Roxon Replacement High Limit Switch. A critical safety component engineered specifically for Hired-Hand Super Saver Heaters.
In the demanding environment of a poultry barn, temperature control is a matter of flock safety. The High Limit Switch (also known as a thermal cutout) acts as a vital fail-safe for your heating unit. It is designed to monitor the internal temperature of the heater and automatically shut down the gas valve if the unit exceeds safe operating temperatures. This prevents equipment damage, fire hazards, and ensures your Hired-Hand heater runs within its engineered parameters.
Key Features & Benefits:
-
Precision Safety Response: Factory-calibrated to trip at the exact temperature threshold required for Hired-Hand Super Saver models. This ensures immediate protection against overheating caused by airflow blockages or mechanical failure.
-
Direct OEM Compatibility: Designed as a seamless replacement for the original Hired-Hand safety switches. It features the correct mounting footprint and electrical terminals for a fast, “plug-and-play” installation.
-
Industrial-Grade Reliability: Built with high-quality bimetal sensors and heat-resistant housing to withstand the constant thermal cycling and harsh conditions (dust, humidity, and ammonia) of broiler and breeder houses.
-
Critical Fire Prevention: By cutting off power to the ignition system or gas valve during an over-temp event, this switch is your primary line of defense against barn fires and equipment meltdown.
-
Essential Maintenance Part: If your heater is “locking out” or won’t stay lit, a faulty or tripped High Limit Switch is a common cause. Replacing this inexpensive part can restore your system’s reliability instantly.

Why You Should Keep a Spare High Limit Switch in Your Inventory:
Heaters are most likely to fail when they are working hardest—during cold snaps or brooding stages. A malfunctioning safety switch can cause “nuisance tripping,” leaving your birds without heat when they need it most. The Roxon High Limit Switch offers an affordable way to ensure your heaters are always ready for action. Keeping a spare on hand allows for immediate troubleshooting and repair, protecting your flock’s health and your bottom line.
