Description
The Danfoss 103N0011 is a PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) starting device engineered to provide dependable start-up assistance for hermetic and semi-hermetic refrigeration compressors. PTC starting devices leverage the self-regulating electrical resistance properties of PTC thermistors to deliver a high-current starting boost and then automatically limit current draw once the compressor is running — eliminating the need for mechanical relay components and reducing maintenance requirements.
Designed for use in refrigeration and air conditioning applications, the Danfoss 103N0011 is a direct, compact solution for improving compressor starting torque, particularly in systems where low voltage conditions or high back-pressure may otherwise hinder reliable start-up. Its solid-state design means no moving parts, resulting in a long service life and consistent performance across repeated start cycles.
