Hestan 49651 Refrigerator Drain Heater Clip

Product Description

The HESTAN 49651 is a drain heater clip designed to secure and position the drain heater element within commercial refrigeration equipment. This small but critical fastener holds the heater wire or element in contact with the drain trough or evaporator drain path, preventing ice buildup that can block drainage and cause water to accumulate inside the cabinet. It is typically replaced during defrost system service or when the existing clip shows damage, corrosion, or loss of retention. Refrigeration technicians working on Hestan commercial units will encounter this part during evaporator compartment access and drain assembly service.

This clip is intended for use in Hestan commercial refrigeration applications where a drain heater is part of the defrost system. It is suited for service environments such as commercial kitchens, food service operations, and any facility running Hestan refrigeration equipment. Installation is performed during scheduled maintenance or as part of a defrost system repair when the drain path is inspected and components are replaced.

Installation Notes
