Tecumseh compressor questions

[Weapon]

I have my eye on a big honkin tecumseh compressor and I was wondering if anyone has a link to the wiring info (or can give me the a sketched out diagram of the wiring) or the start cap/run cap/relay that might be needed for this one:

Tecumseh RK136AT-002-A6
RKA5510EXA
R22
1 PH
115V
10,300btu

I did a search on tecumseh's site and all I got was basically the specs as above. I also tried a straight google and that got me nada...

EDIT: getting closer to finding them - the RKA5510EXA compressor was apparently used in the Maytag 10QZ22RC1 air conditioner. found a listing for the compressor and the price was shown as $396.00. rofl....someone, somewhere would be pI$$3d if they knew I just got one for $20. this is one big bastage of a compressor. :D

EDIT EDIT: finally found the run and start caps...the relay and overload is still a mystery but they will turn up.

In case anyone else runs into this compressor...
run cap:
G21-913, manufacturer no. POC25, MFD 25.0 Volts 370

start cap:
G22-844, manufacturer no. 88-108, 330vac

My my weap, what have you got up your sleeve this time? :D

Get a supco pr 90 and a start cap of 250 uF 270 V, A 25 uf Run cap will also get the run amps down a little.

The circuit diagram is in the package of the pr90, you can get an adjustable voltage start relat and it nneds to be set at 150V.

heh. nothing much....couple of small hints:
the interstage heat exchanger will be here next week. looking at oil separators tomorrow....a big honkin condenser showed up via UPS this morning. :D

prolly wind up in divorce court for this one. :rolleyes:

thanks chilly - I will check with the HVAC store tomorrow and see what they have in stock. I will without a doubt end up having to order and wait but that seems to be the nature of this beast.

any suggestions for oil separators/where to get/guess at the cost?

A 700w + compressor is a little big, no?

hmmmm.....well, I was gonna use it for cooling my north bridge. do you think that is more than it needs??







:D


lol. j/k

that compressor is for the high stage of the cascade system I am putting together...besides, it was fricken dirt cheap. :D

EDIT: sonofa.....one of these days I am going to learn to log ardawg off before posting when I am at his house tearing thru the beer supply. :)
