Heil Quaker ICP 1173454 Coil
The Heil Quaker ICP 1173454 Coil is a critical 240V reversing valve coil designed for specific heat pump applications within the International Comfort Products (ICP) family, including Heil, Tempstar, and Comfortmaker units. This OEM reversing valve solenoid is engineered to provide the precise magnetic force required to actuate the internal slide of the reversing valve, ensuring seamless switching between heating and cooling cycles. Operating at 240VAC, this coil is a direct replacement for failed solenoids that cause systems to become stuck in one mode or fail to respond to thermostat calls. For technicians, verifying the solenoid coil continuity and checking for the proper 240V signal from the defrost board is essential before concluding a valve body failure. Utilizing a genuine ICP replacement part like the 1173454 ensures electrical compatibility and mounting precision, preventing common issues such as coil burn-out due to poor seating or incorrect voltage pull.
Key Benefits:- Precise 240V Actuation: Engineered specifically for high-voltage control circuits to ensure reliable heat pump reversing valve operation.
- OEM Compatibility: Guaranteed fit for ICP HVAC equipment, eliminating the mounting and vibration issues common with universal aftermarket coils.
- Enhanced Durability: Built to withstand the high-temperature environment of the outdoor condenser unit during extended run cycles.
- System Restoral: Effectively resolves "stuck in cooling" or "stuck in heating" symptoms when the mechanical valve is still functional but the solenoid coil has opened.
- How do I test if the 1173454 coil is defective? Use a multimeter to check for continuity across the coil leads; an "open" reading indicates a burnt internal winding. Additionally, verify if 240V is reaching the coil when the system is commanded to switch modes.
- Can I use this 240V coil on a 24V system? No, this is a 240VAC reversing valve coil. Installing it in a 24V circuit will result in failure to actuate, while installing a 24V coil in a 240V circuit will cause an immediate electrical short and potential board damage.
- Does this include the reversing valve body? This part is the solenoid coil only. If the internal slide of the valve is physically stuck due to contaminants, replacing the coil will not resolve the issue.
