York S1-2HK16501006 Heat Kit
The York S1-2HK16501006 Heat Kit provides a reliable 10kW 240V electric heat solution for residential air handlers and modular blowers. Designed for seamless field installation, this auxiliary electric heater features an integrated 60-amp circuit breaker to simplify wiring and meet NEC requirements for overcurrent protection. The heating elements are constructed from high-grade nickel-chromium wire, designed to resist oxidation and maintain thermal integrity over repeated cycles. This 10kW heat strip is essential for heat pump systems requiring supplemental heat during defrost cycles or emergency heating when ambient temperatures drop below the heat pump’s balance point.
Installation is streamlined with plug-in wiring harnesses typical of York, Luxaire, and Coleman air handlers. The unit utilizes heavy-duty limit switches for thermal protection, ensuring the system shuts down if airflow is restricted. For contractors, the S1-2HK16501006 offers a direct OEM fit, reducing labor time while ensuring optimal BTU output for the conditioned space. Its robust frame construction prevents rattle and vibration, maintaining the static pressure specifications of the blower assembly.
- Integrated Circuit Breaker: Provides a dedicated disconnect and circuit protection, eliminating the need for external breaker boxes in many configurations.
- Nickel-Chromium Elements: Engineered for high-temperature durability and consistent heat transfer across the evaporator coil.
- OEM Compatibility: Specifically designed for York S1-series air handlers, ensuring correct airflow clearance and electrical alignment.
- Automated Thermal Limits: Features primary and secondary high-limit protection to prevent overheating during low-airflow conditions.
Common Questions
Is this heat kit compatible with 208V systems?
Yes, the York S1-2HK16501006 can operate on 208V; however, the total wattage and BTU output will be reduced compared to a standard 240V application.
Does this unit require a separate power supply for the air handler?
In most installations, the integrated 60A breaker serves as the primary power entry for both the heat kit and the air handler motor, but always verify the specific wiring diagram for your cabinet model.
Can I install this in a downflow configuration?
This 10kW heater kit is rated for multi-position air handlers, including upflow, downflow, and horizontal applications, provided the air handler itself supports that orientation.
