Tecumseh K71-26 Relay Kit
For the veteran tech on-site, the Tecumseh K71-26 Relay Kit is a direct-replacement electrical component designed to restore reliable operation to Tecumseh refrigeration compressors. This service kit includes a single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) relay featuring a 120-volt coil, paired with a 2-microfarad start capacitor rated for 350 volts. By replacing a damaged or sticking relay, you ensure proper motor start-up and protect the winding's 120V circuit from premature failure. The K71-26 kit comes complete with all necessary mounting hardware, facilitating a fast swap-out during emergency service calls. This OEM compressor relay kit is engineered to match factory specifications, maintaining the balance between the start and run cycles in HVAC start components. When diagnosing a compressor that fails to turn over or is tripping the breaker on start-up, verifying the potential relay and capacitor values is a critical first step for any HVACR technician seeking long-term system stability.
Key Benefits- Technical Precision: Includes a high-spec 2µF 350V capacitor for consistent torque during initial ignition cycles.
- Component Compatibility: Specifically designed for 120V Tecumseh hermetic compressors to ensure electrical profile matching.
- Complete Service Kit: Packaged with essential mounting hardware to minimize downtime during field repairs.
- Reliable Switching: Features a rugged SPDT relay construction to handle high-frequency cycling in commercial refrigeration.
What are the electrical ratings for the components in the K71-26?
The kit utilizes a 120V coil for the relay and a 2-microfarad capacitor rated at 350 volts AC, specifically tuned for Tecumseh motor circuits.
Can I use this kit for 240V compressor models?
No, this kit is engineered for 120V primary circuits. For 208/230V applications, use the manufacturer-specified high-voltage relay kit to prevent coil burnout.
Does this kit include the thermal overload protector?
The K71-26 focuses on the starting relay and potential capacitor; if the overload is also compromised, it must be sourced separately based on the compressor's RLA/LRA ratings.
