    tecumseh single phase compressor wiring



    hi guys im working on a small 3kw water chiller and the compressor is being changed. The original comp had only 1 run capacitor and thermal oload.But the new comp has start cap and run cap and a relay supplied with it. On the comp it has everthing same details but on the box it came in says CSR.Can it be wired same as old one with only 1run capacitor or do i need to wire it in with full set of electrics it came in with.Thankyou

    wire as a csr comp, just l,n,e to the box, make sure the box is mounted securely and upright, you will wire a pressure switch accross L and 1- if no press switch the fit a link,also hook ur cond fan up to 1,n e job done

    Just out of interest are you planning on using the old electrics on the
    new compressor? It always makes sense to replace all the electrics
    with the new ones supplied, because there may be something wrong
    with the old electrics!

    Regards
