The Trane CNT5162 Head Pressure Control is an OEM multi-voltage electronic control module designed for Trane commercial and industrial HVAC refrigeration and air conditioning equipment.
Built for low ambient operation, this control helps maintain stable condensing pressure by monitoring the high-pressure side of the system and adjusting condenser fan speed as ambient conditions and system load change.
Compatible with 50/60 Hz power and 120V, 208–230V, and 460V AC systems, the CNT5162 provides dependable replacement performance for applications requiring accurate head pressure regulation.
With a 0 to 500 psi control range, 10 Amp full load rating, and -40°F to 176°F operating temperature range, this control helps reduce short cycling, support efficient cooling performance, protect refrigeration system operation, and help extend compressor service life in demanding HVAC environments.
