MARS 16095 Relay
The MARS 16095 Potential Relay is a specialized motor starting relay engineered for high-demand HVACR refrigeration systems and heavy-load industrial applications. As a non-positional potential relay, it provides versatile mounting options via an integrated tab-type bracket, making it a reliable choice for field replacements where space is constrained. This component is designed for continuous duty, featuring a high contact rating of 35 amps and a breakdown voltage capable of handling 1/3 HP motors. With a pick-up voltage range of 239 to 290V and a drop-out voltage of 60 to 110V, the 16095 ensures precise timing during the motor start cycle, protecting the start winding and capacitor from prolonged energization. The quick-connect terminals simplify wiring in control panels, while the robust Class B insulation and A2L compliance ensure long-term stability in modern refrigeration and residential air conditioning units. Professionals often utilize the MARS 16095 as an exact replacement for various Bristol and Copeland compressor configurations, maintaining system efficiency and reducing diagnostic downtime.
- Universal Application: Functions as an exact replacement for numerous OEM models in HVAC equipment and submersible pump control boxes.
- High Capacity Performance: Features a 35 amp contact rating and 400 VAC capability to manage heavy-load devices and solenoids.
- Enhanced Durability: Constructed with chrome plating on the core to prevent armature sticking caused by organic contaminants, extending component life.
- Simplified Installation: Equipped with quick-connect terminals and a universal break-off bracket for fast, on-the-spot integration.
- Technical Compliance: Fully UL/CSA Listed and A2L compliant, meeting the safety standards required for industrial automation.
Common Questions
What is the difference between a potential relay and a current relay?
A potential relay like the MARS 16095 operates based on the back EMF (Electromotive Force) generated by the motor reaching a specific speed, whereas a current relay responds to the high amperage draw during initial startup. Potential relays are typically preferred for larger HVACR motors because they are not position-sensitive and offer more precise control over the start capacitor circuit.
Can the MARS 16095 be used on 120V systems?
No, the 16095 potential relay is calibrated with a pick-up voltage of 239 to 290V. Using it on a 120V system will prevent the relay from triggering, which can lead to compressor failure or capacitor burnout. Always verify the coil voltage requirements of your specific motor starting application before installation.
How do I wire the MARS 16095 relay?
Following standard HVAC wiring diagrams, terminal 1 and 2 are typically connected to the start capacitor and start winding, while terminal 5 connects to the common line. Terminal 4 is often used as a tie point for the run capacitor. Ensure all quick-connect leads are secure to prevent arcing under high current loads.
