Tecumseh K71-18 Relay Kit

This Tecumseh K71-18 Relay Kit is a critical electrical service component engineered for high-starting torque applications in commercial refrigeration. Specifically designed for compatibility with the AJA2425ZXA compressor and Celseon AJA2425ZXA/CAJ2428Z condensing units, this kit ensures precise electrical switching to manage high inrush currents during the start cycle. For technicians performing field service on low-temperature systems, using an OEM Tecumseh relay is essential to maintain the calibrated drop-out voltage required for motor winding protection. The robust construction of the compressor start relay handles voltage fluctuations effectively, preventing premature contact pitting and ensuring HVAC system reliability in demanding environments. This kit includes the necessary potential relay and mounting hardware to facilitate a direct replacement for failing electrical controls, ensuring the condensing unit compressor operates within specified amperage parameters. Integrating this start relay kit into your maintenance routine helps prevent compressor burnout and optimizes cyclical performance across industrial and commercial cooling platforms.

• Precise Motor Starting: Engineered to provide the exact switching window required for Tecumseh AJ series compressors.
• Enhanced Component Protection: Shields the compressor windings from stress caused by erratic voltage and improper starting cycles.
• OEM Compatibility: Guaranteed fit and function for AJA2425ZXA-1 and CAJ2428Z models, eliminating the need for field modifications.
• Industrial-Grade Durability: Designed to withstand the high-frequency switching and thermal loads typical of commercial refrigeration.

• Which compressors are compatible with the K71-18? This kit is specifically calibrated for Tecumseh AJ series models, most notably the AJA2425ZXA and CAJ2428Z condensing units.
• Does this kit include the start capacitor? This is a relay-specific kit; always verify if your application requires a separate start capacitor for the full start-assist circuit.
• Can this be used for low-voltage applications? No, this relay is designed for the standard electrical specifications of the AJ compressor line; check your nameplate voltage before installation.
