Lennox 32W96 Compressosr Crankcase Heater 480V 40 Watts

The Lennox 32W96 is a 480 volt, 40 watt crankcase heater for use with HVAC systems. It stops refrigerant flow and oil blending in the course of off cycles, which is typical of cold climate. This is because the heater maintains the crankcase temperatures high allowing for proper oil circulation as well as preventing the compressor from getting damaged due to high wear and tear when starting up. They prevent any consistent work load on a particular component such as the compressor which increases the lifetime of the part and enhances general HVAC system efficiency.
