Crankcase heaters prevent refrigerant migration into the compressor sump during off cycles, which can cause oil foaming and compressor damage on startup. The cch-2c operates across a voltage range of 208 to 277 volts, making it compatible with both standard 208V and 240V single-phase circuits. It features a flexible lock strap design with pre-stripped cold leads for direct hard-wire installation without additional connectors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis crankcase heater is suited for residential split systems and light commercial condensing units where compressor protection during shutdown periods is required. The flexible strap design allows it to wrap around a variety of compressor housings, conforming to the shell for consistent heat transfer. HVAC technicians install this heater as part of routine compressor protection practice, particularly in regions with cold ambient temperatures where refrigerant migration risk is elevated.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelf-regulating crankcase heater reduces refrigerant migration into compressor oil during off cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperates at 208 to 277 volts, covering standard 208V and 240V single-phase applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlexible lock strap secures heater firmly around the compressor shell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-stripped cold leads allow direct hard-wire connection without additional prep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for wrap-around installation on a range of compressor housing diameters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement crankcase heater for residential and light commercial air conditioning and refrigeration compressors requiring 208 to 277 volt crankcase heat protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCrankcase heater installation is typically performed by licensed HVAC technicians. Always disconnect and lock out power to the unit before handling the heater or any wiring. Route and secure the strap snugly around the lower portion of the compressor shell, then hard-wire the cold leads to the appropriate circuit per local electrical codes and NEC requirements. Allow the heater sufficient warm-up time before energizing the compressor after installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 208 to 277 volts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLead Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Pre-stripped cold leads for hard wiring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flexible lock strap wrap-around\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: RAYCHEM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: cch-2c\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RAYCHEM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51467486593330,"sku":"CCH-2C","price":106.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/313945126.webp?v=1783905619","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/raychem-cch-2c-crankcase-heater-240-volt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
