Tecumseh K90-15 Overload
The Tecumseh K90-15 Overload is a critical electrical safety component engineered for specific high-performance hermetic compressors, including AEA2411ZXD and AEA2419ZXA models. As a veteran technician knows, maintaining the integrity of the compressor motor protection circuit is non-negotiable for preventing terminal venting and winding failure. This OEM replacement overload kit operates on an inverse time-current characteristic, allowing for standard inrush current during startup while providing thermal overload protection against sustained over-current conditions. Designed for 208-230V and 115V applications depending on the specific Tecumseh compressor configuration, the K90-15 ensures the system stays within its safe operating envelope. Whether you are troubleshooting a 3-pin hermetic terminal or performing a routine HVAC compressor repair, this kit provides the precise trip curve required to safeguard the assembly from mechanical seizure or phase imbalance. High-quality construction and exact tolerances make the K90-15 overload protector the professional choice for ensuring long-term reliability in commercial refrigeration and air conditioning systems.
Key Benefits- OEM-Grade Precision: Direct replacement part ensures exact electrical trip points match the original compressor specifications.
- Enhanced Equipment Safety: Safeguards against internal ground faults and thermal runaway, reducing the risk of terminal venting.
- Superior Reliability: Built to withstand the rigorous cycling of commercial HVACR environments without nuisance tripping.
- Simplified Installation: Standard configuration allows for rapid swap-outs during field service to minimize system downtime.
- What causes this overload to trip repeatedly? Frequent tripping often indicates a mechanical issue like bearing resistance, a low voltage condition, or a failing start capacitor. Always verify RLA and LRA with a multimeter.
- Is the K90-15 compatible with any compressor brand? No, this is specifically calibrated for Tecumseh hermetic models. Using an incorrect overload can leave the motor unprotected or cause premature failure.
- How do I test the K90-15? Conduct a continuity test across the terminals when the component is cool. If the circuit stays open at room temperature, the internal bimetal strip is likely damaged and requires replacement.
