MARS - 32342 - Crankcase Heater 14HT6 - 400

MARS solid state crankcase heater is a PTCR self regulating device which performs in a similar manner to a heater and thermostat combination. Unlike conventional resistance heater and thermostat combinations which provide only fully on or fully off operation, MARS solid state crankcase heater emits heat in proportion to the compressor requirements. As compressor temperature decreases, current flow through the heater increases causing it to heat up. When the compressor is warm and additional heat is not required, current flow decreases. Only enough electricity is consumed to maintain the correct temperature. MARS solid state crankcase heaters are self adjusting to voltage variations. MARS 32342 is for use on heaterless compressors to help correct refrigerant migration or as a preventative maintenance precaution. It will replace belly-band heaters on compressors up to 5 HP, 120 and 240 VAC. MARS 32342 attaches to the compressor using high temperature, pressure sensitive aluminum foil. If more heat is required, a second 32342 may be wired in parallel and applied to the opposite side of the compressor.
