Tecumseh p83508 Overload Electrical Service Part

Product Description

The TECUMSEH p83508 is an overload protection component designed for use in refrigeration and air conditioning compressor systems. Overload devices monitor motor current and temperature, disconnecting the compressor circuit when unsafe operating conditions are detected to prevent motor burnout. This part falls within TECUMSEH's electrical service parts line and is installed by licensed HVAC and refrigeration technicians during compressor servicing or system repair.

This overload component is suited for residential and light commercial refrigeration and HVAC applications where TECUMSEH compressors are used. It is a service replacement part intended to restore proper overload protection to a compressor that has experienced a failed or damaged overload device. Technicians typically encounter this need during compressor diagnostic calls where the unit fails to start or trips repeatedly under normal load conditions.

Key Features

• Overload protection function monitors motor current and temperature to prevent compressor damage
• Designed as an OEM-style electrical service replacement component
• Part of the TECUMSEH electrical service parts program for field repairs
• Intended for professional installation by qualified HVAC or refrigeration technicians

Compatibility
