PTC STARTING DEVICE AND RUN

C A PA C I T O R

The PTC solid state starting device is a push-

on component mounted to the start and run

terminals of the compressor. This device

is connected in parallel with the run capaci-

tor and is in series with the compressor start

windings. This will produce a short circuit

across the run capacitor during the com-

pressor starting sequence and full current

is applied to the start windings as well as

the main winding. Since the PTC device is

temperature sensitive, a variance in its tem-

perature causes a change in its resistance.

When current is first applied to the com-

pressor, the PTC device's low resistance

shorts out the run capacitor; thus produc-

ing adequate motor starting torque.

As the compressor motor approaches run-

ning speed, the current through the PTC

device causes the temperature and resis-

tance of the PTC device to increase to where

it appears to be an open circuit. The com-

pressor continues to operate on the run

winding in parallel with the series combina-

tion of the run capacitor and start winding.

Checking the PTC Device

Disconnect the unit from the power

source

2. Discharge the capacitor.

NOTE:

See

"Testing The Capacitor" on page 2-7.

3. Remove the wires from the PTC de-

vice terminals.

4. Allow the PTC to cool to room

temperature.

5. Remove the PTC device.

6. Using an ohmmeter, check the resis-

tance between the PTC device termi-

nals. The ohmmeter should register

between 3 and 20 ohms.

An extreme variance between 3 and 20

ohms indicates a defective PTC device

which must be replaced.

NOTE:

We discourage using a voltmeter

to check performance of the PTC device

because test results are influenced by

several factors, such as its dependence

on line voltage to the compressor, the re-

sponse characteristic of the voltmeter

and the PTC device temperature at the

time the compressor is energized.
