Ice Machine Compressor Relay for Commercial Kitchens
In a fast-moving restaurant or food service environment, commercial ice machines must operate without failure to keep up with daily demand. A compressor relay plays a crucial role by controlling the electrical current needed to start and run the compressor. When this part fails, the compressor may not run, causing the ice machine to stop producing ice.
Much like a refrigerator compressor relay, this component protects the compressor motor by regulating electrical flow during startup. Symptoms of a faulty relay include repeat clicking sounds, buzzing noises, irregular cycling, or the compressor failing to start.
Commercial ice machine compressor relays come in various types to meet specific electrical and operational needs. These include: SP relays, SPDT relays, start relays and more. Voltages commonly seen in these relays range from 24VAC to 220-240V at 60Hz.
PartsFe offers durable, quality ice machine relays designed for leading commercial brands like True, Hoshizaki, Beverage Air, Scotsman. Built to handle heavy-duty use, these relays restore proper compressor function, ensuring smooth operation and uninterrupted ice production.
