Description
The True Manufacturing 802289 Overload protects compressor motors in refrigeration equipment by monitoring current draw and interrupting power when horsepower exceeds safe operating limits. This thermal-magnetic system mounts directly on housings where close proximity ensures accurate temperature sensing. When motors experience locked rotor conditions, excessive voltage variations, or mechanical binding, the overload opens internal contacts to halt electrical flow before winding damage occurs in HVAC systems. Automatic reset operation allows system restart after sufficient cooling periods, eliminating unnecessary service calls for temporary overload events. Calibrated specifically for compressor specifications, this component provides protection during normal startup surges.
