#@@# Compact Footprint#@#
This wire measures approximately 7-3/4 by 16-1/4 inches, allowing for installation in tight evaporator spaces while preserving airflow paths. Technicians will find routing and placement straightforward, as the element's slim profile minimizes interference with existing components.
#@@# Precise Power Rating#@#
The component delivers 500W at 120V, providing steady heat for ice release without overloading electrical circuits. Engineers and electricians can plan load distribution using the specified voltage and wattage values to maintain safe, balanced panel loads.
#@@# Durable Construction#@#
PartsTown supplies the element with materials designed for refrigeration environments, resisting degradation from moisture and thermal cycling. Maintenance managers will benefit from longer intervals between replacements, as the assembly endures repeated defrost cycles.
#@@# Easy Integration#@#
Fabrication dimensions of 16.5 by 3.65 inches facilitate alignment with common evaporator mounting points and simplify bracket placement. Service crews can reduce retrofit time by matching these measurements to original equipment openings, securing the element with minimal modification.
#@@# Weight and Handling#@#
Weighing 1.31 pounds, the part is light enough for single technician handling while providing rigid stability during installation. Warehouse staff can store and pick the item efficiently without the need for special lifting equipment.
