8505683 | OVERLOAD/RELAY ASSY | Manitowoc Ice

OVERLOAD/RELAY ASSY: Manitowoc Ice SKU# 8505683This part is an overload/relay assembly designed for Manitowoc ice machines. It is used to protect the compressor from damage caused by overloads or power surges. The assembly consists of a relay, overload protector, and a set of contacts. The relay senses the current flowing through the compressor and trips if the current exceeds a preset level. The overload protector trips if the temperature of the compressor exceeds a preset level. The contacts open when the relay or overload protector trips, which disconnects the power to the compressor.
