Description
The Trane HTR2047 is an OEM crankcase heater designed to protect compressor integrity by preventing refrigerant migration into the compressor oil during off-cycle periods. Operating at 120 volts and rated at 150 watts, this crankcase heater maintains the compressor crankcase at a temperature above the surrounding ambient, ensuring oil viscosity is preserved and liquid refrigerant does not accumulate — a leading cause of compressor failure at startup.
Built to Trane’s exacting quality standards, the HTR2047 is the correct replacement for compatible Trane and American Standard systems, delivering dependable, long-lasting performance in demanding HVAC applications.

Why Crankcase Heaters Matter
During extended off cycles — especially in cold ambient conditions — refrigerant can migrate into the compressor crankcase and dilute the lubricating oil. When the compressor restarts, this refrigerant-oil mixture can cause slugging, bearing damage, and premature compressor failure. A properly functioning crankcase heater eliminates this risk by keeping the crankcase warm, protecting your investment and ensuring reliable system operation season after season.
