Description
The Supco SUPR is a 30-amp universal potential relay engineered to provide dependable compressor starting assistance across a wide range of single-phase HVAC and refrigeration systems. Designed with versatility in mind, this relay is compatible with numerous compressor applications, making it an ideal replacement part for technicians who need a reliable, go-to solution in the field.
How It Works
A potential relay (also known as a voltage relay) is used in conjunction with a start capacitor to assist single-phase compressor motors during startup. As the motor accelerates and back-EMF (electromotive force) rises to the relay’s pickup voltage, the relay opens its normally closed contacts, removing the start capacitor from the circuit. This protects the capacitor and motor windings from damage while ensuring a fast, smooth start every time.
