ICM Controls ICM866U-LF Motor Hard Thermostart With Relay Output
The ICM Controls ICM866U-LF Motor Hard Start with Relay Output is a device designed to assist electric motors in air conditioners and refrigerators during startup. Especially helpful for motors that struggle with initial high current demands, the ICM866U-LF provides a temporary boost of power to overcome this hurdle and get the motor running smoothly. This is achieved through a built-in capacitor and advanced voltage sensing circuitry. The ICM866U-LF monitors the voltage supplied to the motor and precisely triggers the capacitor to deliver additional current only during start-up. Once the motor reaches operating speed, the capacitor disengages automatically. This innovative design offers several benefits. By reducing the strain of starting, the ICM866U-LF can extend the lifespan of the motor and improve overall system reliability. Additionally, the universal design allows for compatibility with a wide range of HVAC equipment, from 1/12 to 5 horsepower motors operating on either 115VAC or 230VAC at 60Hz. With its simple two-wire installation and compact size, the ICM866U-LF represents a user-friendly and effective solution for improving motor performance in HVAC applications.
