Carrier KFCEH2401C05 Heater
For residential and light commercial air handling applications, the Carrier KFCEH2401C05 is a high-performance 5kW electric heater kit designed for seamless integration. This single-phase 208/230V auxiliary heat module provides supplemental or emergency heating for Carrier, Bryant, and Payne fan coils to ensure consistent discharge temperatures during extreme cold. It features a factory-installed non-fused circuit breaker, which simplifies the high-voltage field wiring process by eliminating the need for an external disconnect at the unit. The KFCEH2401C05 is engineered with open-wire heating elements for rapid heat transfer and includes an automatic reset thermal limit switch to prevent overheating. This 5kW fan coil heater is compatible with various series, including the FX, FJ, and FB models. As a veteran-grade HVAC replacement part, it meets strict UL standards for safety and reliability, providing a plug-and-play solution for technicians looking to restore or enhance system heating capacity without complex modifications.
Key Benefits- Integrated Circuit Breaker: Provides essential overcurrent protection and serves as a local disconnect for safer servicing.
- Optimized Heating Capacity: Delivers approximately 17,000 BTU/hr (at 240V), ideal for 1.5 to 3-ton fan coil systems.
- Direct Plugin Harness: Features a polarized heater wiring harness that connects directly to the fan coil control board for error-free installation.
- Single-Stage Operation: Simplifies control logic and thermostat wiring for standard residential heat pump or electric furnace setups.
- Durable Construction: Built with corrosion-resistant steel housings to withstand high-velocity airflow and thermal cycling.
Is the KFCEH2401C05 compatible with multi-stage thermostats?
While this is a 5kW single-stage heater, it can be used with multi-stage thermostats; however, the heat will engage as a single block of 5kW power rather than incrementing.
Does this heater kit require a separate power supply from the fan coil?
No, Once the electric heater kit is installed, the main power is typically routed through the heater’s circuit breaker to power both the elements and the fan coil motor.
Can this be used in downflow or horizontal applications?
Yes, this Carrier electric heater is designed for multi-poise fan coils and is compatible with upflow, downflow, and horizontal orientations provided minimum CFM requirements are met.
This item is not eligible for free shipping.
