As a seasoned technician, you know that consistent starting torque is the difference between a reliable system and a call-back. The Secop Diversitech 117U5014 Start Capacitor is the specific OEM solution required to bring HST (High Starting Torque) capabilities to Danfoss-manufactured PL and TL model compressors. Featuring a 60 MFD (microfarad) rating and a 220V/240V operating voltage, this round start capacitor provides the high-amperage kick-start necessary to overcome head pressure in refrigeration and HVAC circuits.

The 117U5014 hvac start capacitor is engineered with a high temperature rating of 105°C and 1/4 inch (6.3mm) spade terminals for a secure fit in the electrical housing. Integrating this 60 microfarad start capacitor ensures that motor windings are protected from the excessive heat generated by sluggish starts. This original Secop 117U5014 capacitor matches precise discharge timings for Danfoss refrigeration components, making it essential for HVAC start capacitor replacement in commercial refrigeration, ice machines, and heat pump systems that demand repeatable performance under heavy loads.

Key Benefits for Contractors:
  • OEM Compatibility: Specifically designed for PL and TL model compressors for drop-in reliability.
  • High Torque Support: Provides the 60 mfd boost required for high starting torque (HST) applications.
  • Industrial Build: Rated for 220V-300V peak performance with a 105°C thermal threshold to withstand harsh machine compartments.
  • Fast Installation: Round can design with standard 6.3mm terminals facilitates quick field replacement.
  • Motor Protection: Reduces strain on the start winding by ensuring rapid transitions to the run cycle.
Common Questions:

What compressors use the Secop 117U5014?
This capacitor is matched to Secop/Danfoss PL and TL series compressors, including the FR11G model, typically found in high-torque commercial refrigeration setups.

Can I use this 220V capacitor in a 110V system?
No, this unit is matched to 220V capacitor for compressors and should only be used in circuits matching the voltage specifications to prevent component failure.

Does this capacitor include a bleed resistor?
Standard 117U5014 compressor start capacitor models often require the reuse or addition of a bleed resistor if specified by the wiring diagram to ensure safe discharge between cycles.
