{"product_id":"copeland-514-1246-01","title":"Copeland 514-1246-01 Relay Assembly","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eCopeland 514-1246-01 Capacitor and Relay Assembly\u003c\/strong\u003e is a factory \u003cstrong\u003estart-assist assembly\u003c\/strong\u003e for single-phase Copeland compressors, listed by Copeland as a \u003cstrong\u003eCAP \u0026amp; RELAY ASSM\u003c\/strong\u003e. The capacitor(s) and \u003cstrong\u003estarting relay\u003c\/strong\u003e come \u003cstrong\u003epre-wired inside a galvanized steel can\u003c\/strong\u003e with \u003cstrong\u003emounting flange feet\u003c\/strong\u003e and a \u003cstrong\u003ecolor-coded lead harness\u003c\/strong\u003e (red, yellow, black and green) leaving through a rubber grommet, so you replace the whole start circuit in one step. \u003cstrong\u003e514-1246-01\u003c\/strong\u003e sits in the \u003cstrong\u003e514-1246-xx\u003c\/strong\u003e series next to \u003cstrong\u003e514-1246-00\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003e514-1246-02\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003e514-1246-03\u003c\/strong\u003e, and each of those is a separate, current part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe job of the assembly is to give a \u003cstrong\u003esingle-phase compressor\u003c\/strong\u003e the \u003cstrong\u003estarting torque\u003c\/strong\u003e it lacks on its own. The \u003cstrong\u003ecapacitor\u003c\/strong\u003e boosts current in the start winding, and the \u003cstrong\u003erelay\u003c\/strong\u003e drops that circuit out once the compressor is running. A tired capacitor or pitted relay contacts cause \u003cstrong\u003eslow starts\u003c\/strong\u003e, a compressor that \u003cstrong\u003ehums and cycles on overload\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003erepeated short-cycling\u003c\/strong\u003e, or a visibly \u003cstrong\u003eswollen capacitor\u003c\/strong\u003e. Because capacitor and relay age together, replace them as a matched \u003cstrong\u003eassembly\u003c\/strong\u003e rather than one at a time. Disconnect and lock out power first and \u003cstrong\u003edischarge the capacitor\u003c\/strong\u003e before you touch any lead. Do not substitute a neighboring dash number unless your compressor parts list says so; \u003cstrong\u003e514-1246-01\u003c\/strong\u003e should be ordered by the exact number on the original assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOne-Step Replacement:\u003c\/strong\u003e The \u003cstrong\u003epre-wired harness\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eenclosed capacitor and relay\u003c\/strong\u003e replace the entire start circuit at once.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecified by Copeland:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sold as \u003cstrong\u003eCopeland 514-1246-01\u003c\/strong\u003e, the factory part, so ratings and relay characteristics match the original design.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDurable Mounting:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eGalvanized steel enclosure\u003c\/strong\u003e with \u003cstrong\u003emounting flanges\u003c\/strong\u003e resists corrosion and bolts to the unit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFixes Start Problems:\u003c\/strong\u003e Addresses \u003cstrong\u003ehard starting\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eoverload trips\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eshort-cycling\u003c\/strong\u003e traced to a weak \u003cstrong\u003estart capacitor\u003c\/strong\u003e or worn \u003cstrong\u003erelay\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoes -01 replace -00?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. \u003cstrong\u003e514-1246-01\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003e514-1246-00\u003c\/strong\u003e are both current, separate Copeland assemblies.
