Dungs Air Pressure Switch LGW 3 C3 For Fagor Ecocompact FE 20 E - Ref. FA000160
Air pressure switch manufactured by Dungs (Germany), model LGW 3 C3, item 228 240, for Fagor Ecocompact FE 20 E boiler. It switches in the range of 150/88 Pa (maximum ±5 kPa) and supports an electrical load of 2.5A at 250V~ (10-60Hz). It is replaced when the pressure switching fails and the boiler does not complete the ignition cycle.

How to check if ref. FA000160 is the part for your boiler
What determines it is not the boiler model, but the reference printed on the part you already have installed.
- Find the reference printed on the installed part and check whether it matches the catalogue reference FA000160. If it is not visible, do not identify the part from its shape alone.
- Check the full boiler model on its data plate and look for it in the model associations on this page.
- Compare the connections and physical body with the original part before installation.
- If anything is unclear, send us a photo of the marking via WhatsApp before placing your order.
Symptoms and faults that the pressure switch FA000160 resolves.
The pressure switch controls the air or water pressure to authorize operation. These are the typical symptoms and what to do:
Common symptoms and faults
- 01
The boiler does not complete the ignition cycle and locks up as soon as it starts.
Cause: The pressure switch did not switch correctly, preventing the gas from flowing.
Check that the electrical connections of the pressure switch are secure and free of rust.
- 02
A warning of air pressure fault appears on the display as soon as the fan starts.
Cause: The pressure switch signal is not being received, which causes this warning on the display.
Check that the pressure take-off tubes are not damaged, bent, or filled with water.
- 03
The fault always occurs at the same point in the ignition cycle.
Cause: The lockout occurs when the pressure switch does not confirm the pressure, which may be due to a contact that does not close.
Note the exact moment when the fault occurs to rule out other causes such as the gas valve.
- 04
The boiler starts up well some days and not others, with no clear pattern.
Cause: A worn pressure switch can act erratically in response to small variations in pressure or temperature.
Check the condition of the flue duct and its external terminal; any restriction may affect this component.
Fault codes for Fagor that this part resolves.
| Code | Fault | Diagnosis and solution |
|---|---|---|
| F2 | Evacuation/draught fault: the air pressure switch does not detect circulation (or starts with the pressure switch activated). | The air differential pressure switch may not switch due to a damaged diaphragm, faulty microswitch, or blocked/reversed tubes, so the PCB does not receive confirmation of draft. Check the continuity of the contacts with a multimeter when the fan starts and inspect/clean the inlets and tubes to the pressure switch. |
These symptoms can have more than one cause. If your boiler displays a fault code, send it to us via WhatsApp along with a photo of the labeling, and we'll tell you if this is the part.
