Copeland 971-0561-61 Overload

The Copeland 971-0561-61 Overload is an essential OEM compressor motor protector designed to safeguard HVAC and refrigeration systems from operational failure. Operating within a temperature range of 69°F to 125°F, this external overload protector kit monitors current draw to shield the motor and compressor against thermal overload and mechanical issues. For technicians performing field service, this Copeland compressor part ensures the system maintains high performance and operational integrity. Built with a durable metal and plastic composition, the 971-0561-61 overload relay is a model-specific component that provides precise motor protection by cutting power to the circuit when overheating is detected. As a reliable HVAC replacement part, it allows for a reset and resumption of normal functions once the fault condition is addressed, preventing costly compressor burnouts and extending the service life of Emerson Copeland refrigeration units. Ensure compatibility by verifying your specific model and serial number before installation.

• Precise Thermal Protection: Engineered to monitor and respond to overheating and electrical overloads, protecting the compressor motor from catastrophic failure.
• OEM Reliability: As an original Copeland protector kit, it ensures direct fitment and matches the exact technical specifications of the factory component.
• Wide Operating Range: Sustains system safety in ambient environments ranging from 69°F to 125°F, suitable for various refrigeration applications.
• Automatic Reset Capability: Designed to permit normal system operation once the identified overload condition has been cleared.

• How do I confirm if this overload fits my specific compressor? Because this is a model-specific component, you must cross-reference the manufacturer part number with your compressor's serial and model sticker.
• Can this part be used as a universal overload? No, specialized Copeland overloads are calibrated for specific motor windings; using an incorrect protector can lead to inadequate protection or nuisance tripping.
• What causes this overload to trip frequently? Common causes include high head pressure, faulty start components, or low voltage, all of which force the overload protector to break the circuit to save the motor.
