ICM870-9A Soft Start, Built-in Start Capacitor, Over/Under Voltage Monitoring, Over-Current Protection, Current 9A

The ICM870 Series Soft Starts are NOT recommended to be used with air conditioners or heat pumps which have control boards that sense compressor current and perform a lock out for fault conditions.

Any Air Conditioner or Heat Pump which has a Comfort Alert control board or an Emerson Core Sense Module installed are not directly compatible for use with the ICM870 Series Soft Start.

The Emmerson Core Sense modules can be bypassed when using the ICM870 Series Soft Starts. Unfortunately, the Comfort Alert cannot be bypassed and therefore ICM870 cannot be used

**This item is designed to be used with various units so long as they are within the operating range. Do not exceed BTU, Tonnage, or RLA for this product.**

The ICM870 is intended for marine, RV, residential and commercial applications. The ICM870 integrates compressor or motor in-rush current over startup time, thus reducing peak current demand on a power supply source, such as generator or other. The ICM870 will monitor system health including voltage, current, compressor startup and self integrity. Upon a fault condition, the ICM870 will halt operation and initiate a 3 minute anti-short cycle routine while providing diagnostic fault information by means of an LED indicator.
