What it is

The Worcester Bosch 87161424140 is an air pressure switch used on Worcester Bosch combi boilers. It monitors the pressure created by the combustion fan and signals the control board that air is moving through the appliance correctly. The boiler uses that signal as a proving check before allowing the gas valve to open and ignition to take place.

Because the switch sits in the fan proving circuit, a failure shows up as a boiler that will not fire, locks out, or cuts out part way through a demand for heating or hot water.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • The boiler fails to fire even though the fan runs on start-up
  • Repeated lockouts on ignition, or lockout shortly after the burner lights
  • Heating and hot water cut out intermittently during a demand
  • The fan continues to run without the boiler progressing to ignition
  • A fault indication relating to fan or air pressure proving appears on the appliance

Before you order

  • Check the appliance GC number and serial number against the compatibility list, as the 24i RSF Combi NG was produced in more than one build.
  • Compare the number on the existing switch with 87161424140 and the alternative numbers listed above before ordering.
  • This part is fitted to a gas appliance; installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
