Title: Cavalier C-51 Klixon Relay
Post by: Pinsanon on June 13, 2008, 06:27:07 am
Hi Guys

Having trouble getting the compressor to fire up and thinking it might be the relay.

The relay has the following written on it...

Klixon
5192-33
C6360-2011
1/4 HP 5F
115v 60c

There's not much on google with these numbers, and one place I found showing a replacement relay (for c6360) looks completely wrong (both in appearance and pin-outs etc).

Does anyone have a schematic of the relay? Am I going to be able to find an original replacement, or am I looking at a modern equivalent?

(apologies for the noobish questions)

The round usually black in color "klixon" is the overtemp/circutbreaker. & if the start-run relay is also the "klixon" brand, then it  is obsolete & isn't available anymore, but you can replace it with a new 3-in-1 solid-state start-run relay with a built-in overtemp protector, it is very small & comes with 4-5" wire leads to attach to the compressor connection pins.

here is a link to Graingers online catalog with the Item page.

Try a small appliance repair store, they should still have the origional parts.

I have a three in one (coutesy of Wayne) on two of my machines... They work just fine.
