Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 402170.0 changeover switch compatible with my Kaeser compressor?

The 402170.0 is a Kaeser changeover switch for full-load mode used on compatible Kaeser compressors. Compatibility should always be confirmed by matching 402170.0 in your parts manual before ordering. Not sure? Reach out with your compressor model and serial number and we’ll help confirm compatibility. 

What does the 402170.0 changeover switch do?

The 402170.0 is used to change the compressor’s operating mode in the control system.

Descriptions identify it with:

  • Full-load mode
  • High/low idle control

The switch allows the operator or control system to select the appropriate operating state for the compressor.

What type of component is the 402170.0?

The 402170.0 is an electrical changeover switch used in the compressor control panel.

It is also described as:

  • Changeover Switch Full Load Mode
  • High/low idle switch
  • Push-button switch

It should not be confused with a pressure switch, temperature switch, pressure transducer, or compressor safety shutdown sensor.

What are the signs that the 402170.0 may need replacement?

Possible symptoms include:

  • Compressor does not switch into full-load mode
  • High/low idle selection does not respond
  • Switch feels loose or damaged
  • Intermittent operation when the switch is moved
  • Compressor responds only when the switch is held or moved repeatedly
  • Electrical continuity through the switch is inconsistent
  • Switch contacts are burned or corroded
  • Control-panel switch is physically broken

Other control-system problems can produce similar symptoms, so the electrical circuit should be tested before replacing the switch.

Is this an OEM part?

This is an OEM-equivalent replacement changeover switch designed to meet the same performance standards as the original Kaeser switch.  

How difficult is it to install?

Replacing the Kaeser 402170.0 changeover switch is generally a moderate electrical repair.

The switch is mounted in the compressor control panel, so installation typically involves:

  • Shutting the compressor down completely
  • Disconnecting and locking out electrical power
  • Opening the control panel
  • Labeling or photographing the existing wire connections
  • Disconnecting the old switch
  • Removing it from the panel
  • Installing the replacement 402170.0
  • Reconnecting the wiring to the correct terminals
  • Testing the full-load / high-low idle function

A technician familiar with compressor electrical systems should be able to complete the replacement without major disassembly. If the wiring configuration is unclear, use the compressor’s electrical schematic or have a qualified technician perform the repair.
