Copeland 971-0605-09 1/12 HP-1/3 HP Overload Protector

The Copeland 971-0605-09 1/12 HP-1/3 HP Overload Protector is an essential safety device that prevents electrical overload which can lead to compressor or motor failure in HVAC equipment. Since it is made for compressors or motors rated between 1/12 and 1/3 HP at 115V AC, this overload protector serves to ensure optimal performance and reliability when operating an HVAC system. This type of device serves as a safeguard against excessive electrical currents flowing through an HVAC compressor or motor, therefore, the overload protector cuts off the circuit whenever there’s high current thereby preventing overheating and mechanical breakdowns. It is an integral part of the efficiency and operational integrity of an HVAC system that works automatically. When normal conditions are restored, the device restarts automatically.
