Compressor Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : EL-RACLE-12824
Jlab Export is a leading Compressor Manufacturer,and suppliers in India
With a 1/5 hp motor, this R-134a compressor sits between the 1/6 hp and 1/4 hp models for domestic refrigeration. It is started by a PTC relay and relies on static air cooling (type S), so the machine compartment needs no fan for it.

Starting Circuit Practicals for Students
Students wire the compressor to its PTC relay and to an overload protector such as the Compressor Protection Overload, then switch on through a fused test lead. With a Digital Clamp Meter on the common wire, they read the brief starting surge and then the steady running current, and compare it with the label.
A Compressor Analyzer takes the exercise further. It can start the compressor directly, test the windings for opens and grounds, and check start parts by substitution. Students learn to tell a faulty relay from a faulty motor before they condemn a compressor.
Frequently Asked Questions
What current should this compressor draw?
Read the running current on the compressor label and compare it with a clamp meter reading on the common wire. Starting current is several times higher for a moment. A running current well above the label points to high pressures, low voltage or a failing motor.
What does the overload protector do?
It sits against the compressor shell and opens the supply if the current or the shell temperature gets too high. It closes again when it cools, so repeated tripping is a sign to look for the real fault.
Can a 1/5 hp compressor replace a 1/6 hp one?
Only if the system was designed for it. A larger compressor needs a matching capillary tube, condenser and charge, or the system runs at the wrong pressures. The usual choice is the same horse power and refrigerant as the original.
Does this compressor need a cooling fan?
No. Its cooling type is S, meaning static: air moving naturally around the shell is enough. Keep the machine compartment free of dust and stored items so the warm air can escape.
