Trane HTR15174 Crankcase Heater
Professional-grade Trane HTR15174 Crankcase Heater is a critical OEM replacement part designed to maintain optimal lubricant temperature in high-voltage HVAC compressor systems. Engineered specifically for heavy-duty Trane HVAC equipment, this 480V 70W crankcase heater utilizes a durable belt type heating element that wraps securely around the compressor housing. This targeted heat prevents refrigerant migration and oil dilution during the off-cycle, significantly reducing the risk of flooded starts and bearing washout in commercial refrigeration and cooling units.
Field technicians will appreciate the extended 62-inch leads, which provide superior flexibility for routing and wire management in complex electrical cabinets. As a direct HTR15174 replacement for the older Trane HTR12388, this component ensures seamless HVAC part compatibility and performance reliability. By regulating internal temperatures, this 70-watt heater mitigates liquid slugging and mechanical stress on internal scrolls and valves, supporting the operational integrity of high-demand industrial systems even in low-ambient conditions.
Key Benefits- OEM Precision: Genuine Trane HTR15174 construction ensures exact fitment and amperage draw for 480V systems.
- Optimized Lubrication: Maintains crankcase oil above the refrigerant saturation point to prevent foaming on startup.
- Versatile Leads: Heavy-duty, 62-inch factory-stripped leads facilitate rapid terminal connections in large-frame units.
- Hardware Protection: Specifically designed to eliminate the causes of liquid slugging and compressor valve damage.
Is this heater compatible with 460V systems?
Yes, this 480V component is standard for 460/480V industrial power supplies commonly found in commercial Trane rooftops and chillers.
Can this replace a standard bolt-on heater?
This is a belt type heater designed for external wrap-around application. It provides more uniform heat distribution than most well-style or bolt-on internal heaters.
What is the primary function of the 70W rating?
The 70-watt output provides the necessary thermal energy to warm the oil sump without overheating the compressor shell, striking the right balance for year-round protection.
