SPP5 Kick capacitor/Relay Starting Power Pack

SPP5 Kick Capacitor / Relay Starting Power Pack – Product Description

The SPP5 Kick Capacitor is a hard start device that combines a start capacitor and a potential relay in a compact, easy-to-install package. It’s designed to give air conditioning and refrigeration compressors an extra boost during startup, especially in high-demand situations or where low voltage conditions are present. Ideal for single-phase systems, it improves compressor start-up reliability and efficiency.

Applications

• Single-phase air conditioning units

• Refrigeration compressors

• Heat pump systems

• Units experiencing hard starting or low voltage issues

Features

• Built-in relay – Automatically disconnects the capacitor after startup

• Fast, powerful boost – Provides high starting torque to get the compressor running quickly

• Easy installation – Pre-wired with universal terminals for quick connection

• Extends compressor life – Reduces strain and overheating during startup

• Compatible with most 1-3 ton systems

Specifications

• Model: SPP5

• Voltage Range: 110V – 277V AC

• Capacitance: Varies by internal capacitor (typically ~88-108 µF)

• Relay Type: Integrated potential relay

• Application: For use with PSC (permanent split capacitor) type compressors

• Mounting: Inline or within the compressor terminal box

Questions

• Is your compressor facing hard-starting issues or low-voltage startup delays?

• Are you installing this in a residential air conditioner or a refrigeration system?
