Lennox 16Y38 Heat Kit
The Lennox 16Y38 (Model ECBA25-10) is a field-installed 10kW electric heat kit engineered specifically for integration with CBA25UH series air handlers. This single-phase, 208/240V assembly features high-grade helix wound nichrome heating elements, which are positioned directly in the air stream to provide instantaneous thermal transfer and maintain lower element temperatures for extended component life. Designed for seamless fitment within the unit cabinet, the 16Y38 includes a factory-wired terminal block to streamline high-voltage field connections and reduce installation time for contractors.
Safety and sequencing are managed by an integrated thermal sequencer relay, which stages the heating elements in increments with a specific time delay to prevent excessive amperage spikes and ensure proper blower operation. Each element is safeguarded by an automatic reset limit control and a supplemental thermal cutoff for positive over-temperature protection. This 10.0 kW kit is a critical component for supplemental heating applications in residential HVAC systems, providing reliable auxiliary heat during defrost cycles or extreme low-ambient conditions. Built with a heavy-gauge galvanized steel control box and ETL-listed components, it stands as the professional choice for maintaining system efficiency and occupant comfort.
Key Benefits for HVAC Professionals:- Direct Heat Transfer: Exposed nichrome elements allow for rapid warm-up and high-efficiency energy conversion.
- Simplified Field Wiring: Includes a pre-installed terminal block and low-voltage plug-in connectors for fast integration with Lennox air handlers.
- Advanced Safety Suite: Equipped with primary limit controls and secondary thermal cutouts to protect against airflow restrictions.
- Professional Grade Construction: Heavy-gauge galvanized steel housing and ETL-listed electrical components ensure long-term reliability.
Is the Lennox 16Y38 compatible with 208V systems?
Yes, the 16Y38 is rated for 208-240V single-phase power. When installing in a 208V application, ensure the 24V transformer lead is moved from the 240V terminal to the 208V terminal to maintain the correct secondary voltage.
Does this 10kW heat kit include a circuit breaker?
No, the 16Y38 is the terminal block version. For applications requiring an integrated disconnect or circuit breaker, you would typically specify the "CB" version of the ECBA25 series.
What is the heating capacity of this kit in BTUs?
At 240V, this 10.0 kW kit provides approximately 34,121 BTU of supplemental heating capacity.
