Description
The Trane HTR15361 is a genuine OEM crankcase heater engineered to protect compressor longevity and reliability in commercial and residential HVAC systems. Operating at 40 watts and 460 volts, this heater maintains the compressor crankcase at an elevated temperature during off cycles, preventing refrigerant from migrating into and diluting the compressor oil.
Why Crankcase Heaters Matter
During compressor shutdown, refrigerant can migrate to the crankcase and mix with the lubricating oil. When the compressor restarts, this refrigerant-oil mixture can cause slugging, bearing damage, and premature compressor failure. The HTR15361 eliminates this risk by keeping the crankcase warm, ensuring proper oil viscosity and protecting internal compressor components at every startup.
