Lennox 17F60 Collector Box

The Lennox 17F60 Collector Box (also identified by part number 619598-55) is a critical OEM replacement component designed for high-efficiency condensing furnaces, specifically the Lennox ML195 series. As a veteran technician knows, this cold end header box is responsible for the collection and management of acidic condensate produced during the secondary heat exchange process. Precision-engineered for a secure fit, the 17F60 ensures that flue gases are effectively separated from the liquid byproduct, preventing hazardous leaks and protecting the combustion air inducer from moisture-related failure. When diagnosing a pressure switch lockout or visible condensate leakage at the header, replacing the collector box is often the necessary solution to restore optimal furnace drainage. This HVAC replacement part features a durable 1/2-inch NPT connection and is built to withstand the corrosive environment of a high-AFUE heating system. Utilizing genuine Lennox HVAC parts maintains the factory-spec performance and reliability of the unit, ensuring seamless integration with existing condensate drain lines and pressure tubing.

• OEM Compatibility: Specifically engineered for the Lennox ML195 furnace series to ensure a perfect seal and proper pressure switch operation.
• Enhanced Drainage: Managed condensate flow prevents accumulation that leads to inducer motor damage and furnace pressure switch failure.
• Corrosion Resistance: Fabricated with materials designed to handle the low-pH condensate common in 90%+ AFUE gas furnaces.
• Direct Fit: Includes the necessary mounting points for the combustion air inducer, streamlining the swap-out process for field technicians.

• Why is my Lennox 17F60 collector box leaking? Cracks often develop due to thermal stress or improper drainage, which allows acidic water to bypass the seal and drip onto the furnace floor or inducer.
• Can a clogged collector box cause a pressure switch error? Yes. If the cold end header box is blocked with debris or cannot drain, it disrupts the pressure differential, causing the furnace safety limit to trip.
• What is the difference between part 17F60 and 619598-55? These are the same internal Lennox component; 17F60 is the ordering catalog number, while 619598-55 is the manufacturing part number.
