The Trane HTR12887 is a belt-type crankcase heater engineered to protect compressor reliability by preventing refrigerant migration into the compressor oil during off-cycle periods. By maintaining the oil temperature above the refrigerant condensation point, this heater helps prevent oil dilution, slugging, and premature compressor wear — extending equipment life and reducing costly service calls.
