DESCRIPTION
50M56X-843 is an aftermarket universal replacement control
kit for single stage furnace applications with PSC or ECMx
(constant torque) blower motors. A HotRod
is included to replace ignitors in most furnaces as well as
upgrade 80V systems to 120V.
With 50M56X-843 no complex adapter harnesses are
required, instead all connectors and terminals used in the
major OEM brands are included on the control itself. This
allows for OEM wiring to be connected directly to the control
for a faster and easier installation.
