Danfoss 103N0026 PTC Compressor Starter 115V 5 Ohm

The Danfoss 103N0026 is a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) compressor starter designed for reliable starting of hermetic refrigeration compressors. This solid-state starting device operates on 115-volt systems and features a 5-ohm resistance rating.

Key Features:

• PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) technology for reliable compressor starting
• 115-volt operation for standard residential and commercial applications
• 5-ohm resistance specification
• Solid-state design with no moving parts for enhanced durability
• Compact form factor for easy installation in tight spaces
• Self-regulating current limitation protects compressor windings

PTC starters work by allowing high current flow during the initial start cycle, then automatically limiting current as the device heats up. This provides the necessary torque to start the compressor while protecting electrical components. The Danfoss 103N0026 is commonly used as a replacement starter in refrigerators, freezers, air conditioning units, and other refrigeration equipment.
