Hayward PRESSURE SWITCH GOLD CT

A Hayward Pressure Switch Gold CT is a safety‑critical component used in certain Hayward pool heaters to monitor water pressure and ensure the system only operates when proper flow is present. By opening or closing its internal electrical contacts based on pressure levels, it helps protect the heater from overheating or running dry, extending equipment life and maintaining safe operation. The switch is built with durable, corrosion‑resistant materials to withstand chlorinated water environments and the temperature fluctuations common in heater systems. Its compact design allows for straightforward installation and reliable long‑term performance. Despite its importance, the switch remains lightweight, with an estimated weight of about 0.2–0.4 pounds, depending on the specific model
