Installation: Electrical
Optional PFCCs
Power factor correction capacitors (PFCCs) are designed to provide power factor cor-
rection for the compressor motor. They are available as an option.
Note: Remember that the PFCC nameplate voltage rating must be greater than or
equal to the compressor voltage rating stamped on the unit nameplate. See Table 18
to determine what PFCC is appropriate for each compressor voltage application.
CAUTION
Motor of safety overload damage!
PFCC must be wired into the starter correctly. Failure to do so may cause misapplica-
tion of these capacitors and result in a loss of motor overload protection and subse-
quently cause motor damage.
