Copeland 918-0038-02 Crankcase Heater Wrap Around 240V 45W

The Copeland 918-0038-02 Crankcase Heater Wrap Around is a vital component for achieving efficiency and reliability in HVAC systems. Specifically designed to provide constant heat to refrigeration and air conditioning compressors’ crankcase, this 240V heater warms up the crankcase of such appliances. Consequently, it prevents refrigerant from condensing while maintaining its liquid state. This action is central to averting problems like liquid slugging during compressor start-ups which compromise effectiveness and can even destroy the unit. In areas with extremely cold weather where right temperatures are required for consistent compressor performance, having this crankcase heater becomes essential. Its optimal combustion leads to better system efficiency reducing possible odds of mechanical failures leading to extended longevity of equipment.
