Description
The International Comfort Products 1178075 Heater Crankcase is a crankcase heating component to maintain compressor oil temperature in refrigeration and compressor-based assemblies. Rated at 40 watts with a 240-volt electrical supply, it is positioned around the compressor crankcase to support controlled heat transfer to the oil chamber during off-cycle conditions. This component is commonly used in compressors within HVAC systems to manage refrigerant migration into the oil sump. It connects within the compressor assembly and operates continuously or during standby periods depending on system control.
