Tecumseh K71-57 Relay Kit
The Tecumseh K71-57 Relay Kit is a field-critical component engineered to provide reliable compressor motor starting for small to medium-sized refrigeration and HVAC systems. Designed for 115V applications, this kit is frequently utilized in Reciprocating Compressors such as the AE2413U-AA1A and AE2415Z-AA1A models. By managing the high inrush current required at startup, this solid-state relay ensures your induction motors transition efficiently from the start windings to the run windings, preventing common failure modes like thermal overloading or nuisance tripping.
When troubleshooting a Tecumseh hermetic compressor that fails to turn over or hums without starting, replacing the OEM relay kit is often the first step in restoring system equilibrium. This kit is a direct alternative for the SSR3 unit, specifically optimized for Resistance Start Induction Run (RSIR) configurations. Its compact, push-on design facilitates rapid installation in the field, minimizing downtime for your commercial or residential cooling accounts. Focus on maintaining tight electrical connections and verifying winding resistance before final installation to ensure the start relay kit interfaces correctly with your existing capacitor and overload components.
Key Benefits:- Ensures OEM-spec compatibility with Tecumseh AE and high-efficiency compressor series.
- Provides a drop-in replacement for standard 115V RSIR relay units to simplify inventory.
- Protects the motor from premature failure by managing electrical current flow during high-torque startup.
- Compact plug-in installation reduces labor time during emergency service calls.
- Engineered to maintain strict UL and industrial standards for refrigeration electrical control.
- Which compressors are compatible with the K71-57? This kit is specifically vetted for Tecumseh 115V/60Hz models like the AE2413Y-AA1B and AE2413U. Always check your compressor's RLA and LRA ratings against the guidebook.
- Can I use this relay for capacitor-start motors? While frequently found in RSIR systems, always verify if your specific capacitor start (CSIR) configuration requires a potential relay instead of this current-style kit.
- How do I check if my current relay is faulty? Use a multimeter to check for continuity across the relay terminals; if the internal coil is open or the solid-state disc has shattered, the K71-57 relay kit is the necessary replacement part.
