6. Microelettrica Scientifica PTC1177 — PTC Positive Temperature Coefficient Starting Relay (for Compressors)
Product Name: Microelettrica Scientifica (now often referenced as Tecumseh / generic OEM) PTC1177 Start Relay for Single-Phase Induction Motor / Hermetic Compressor
Product Brief: Ceramic PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient thermistor) start relay used to momentarily engage the start winding of single-phase capacitor-start or split-phase compressor motors. When energized, the PTC heats up and becomes high-resistance, effectively removing the start winding from circuit after run-up.
Key Technical Specifications:
-
Device Type: PTC Start Relay (Semiconductor ceramic pellet type)
-
Typical Use: Refrigeration / air-conditioning hermetic compressors (e.g. Tecumseh, Embraco, Danfoss small frames)
-
Rated Voltage: 110–250 VAC (line voltage applied across PTC during start cycle)
-
Switch-off Resistance (Hot): >10–30 kΩ (typical for start-relay PTC — blocks current after heating)
-
Cold (Room Temp) Resistance: 15–50 Ω (allows start winding current to flow at switch-on)
-
Trip / Switch Time: 0.1–0.5 s (depends on motor inrush & PTC characteristics)
-
Max Switching Current: Typically 15–30 A inrush (verify per compressor HP)
-
Insulation Resistance: ≥100 MΩ @ 100 VDC
-
Dielectric Strength: 1500–2000 VAC (terminal to case, 1 min)
-
Operating Temp Range: -30°C to +85°C (ambient); PTC pellet reaches 120–150°C internally during operation
-
Terminals: Quick-connect spade terminals (typically 1/4″ or 3/16″)
-
Mounting: Clip-on or socket mount onto compressor terminal box
Features & Working Principle: Uses barium titanate ceramic PTC whose resistance rises sharply above Curie temperature. On compressor start, cool PTC conducts → start winding energized. After ~100–300 ms, self-heating raises PTC above Curie point → high resistance → start winding effectively disconnected. No mechanical contacts = silent operation & long life.
Applications: Domestic / commercial refrigerator compressors, freezer compressors, small air-conditioner condensing units, vending machine refrigeration.
Installation & Notes: Must be matched to compressor HP & start winding impedance — incorrect PTC causes failure to start or overheating. Ensure good thermal contact is NOT required (PTC self-heats). Allow cool-down time (~3 min) before re-start to permit PTC to return to low-resistance state. Replace together with start capacitor if applicable.
