Dual Run Capacitor
The capacitor provides the necessary phase-angle displacement to the start windings of the compressor motor; if the capacitance drifts out of tolerance, the motor will fail to maintain torque and draw Locked Rotor Amps (LRA). This excessive current generation triggers the internal thermal protector, causing the motor to shut down shortly after startup to prevent winding insulation melt-down.

Low Pressure Switch
This safety component monitors the suction side of the system to ensure there is sufficient refrigerant mass flow to cool the compressor motor. If the pressure drops below the setpoint due to a leak or restricted airflow, the switch opens the 24V control circuit, instantly dropping the contactor and stopping operation to prevent mechanical seizure from oil starvation.

High Pressure Switch
The high pressure switch acts as a mechanical fail-safe against excessive head pressure, which occurs when heat cannot be rejected at the condenser coil. If the condenser fan fails or the coil is fouled, the pressure rise forces the switch to interrupt power to the compressor contactor to prevent catastrophic rupture of the compressor's internal discharge valves.
