Industrial OV48 Overload Kit

Industrial OV48 Overload Kit from SUPCO is a universal overload protector for small compressor motors used in refrigeration and HVAC equipment. It guards single‑phase compressors rated 1/2 to 1 HP by interrupting current when the motor overheats or stalls, helping prevent damage from overload conditions. The OV48 is characterized by a locked rotor amps range approximately 40.5 to 44.5 A, a specification aligned with typical 1/2–1 HP refrigeration and air‑conditioning compressors. As part of SUPCO’s OV line of protection devices, the OV48 offers a compact, self-contained solution that can be integrated into replacement or retrofit applications where an OV‑series overload protector is specified. Typical applications include small refrigeration compressors in coolers and freezers, as well as HVAC equipment that employs single‑phase motors in the 1/2 to 1 HP range. This kit‑style designation signals a packaged overload protection option from SUPCO designed to safeguard compressor operation and extend motor life in industrial and commercial settings.
