Torque Plus DST-5 Hard Start Kit, 120 to 288 V, PSC Single Phase DV-DST-5

DiversiTech Torque Plus Hard Start Kit (DV-DST-5) is a hard start kit designed for PSC single-phase air conditioning and heat pump systems operating from 120 to 288 volts and typically applied on equipment from 1/2 to 10 horsepower. The kit includes a start capacitor paired with an electronic start device that momentarily engages the capacitor during startup and then automatically removes it once the compressor is running, along with prewired leads and mounting hardware for installation. This combination provides added starting torque to help compressors start reliably under high load or marginal electrical conditions, making it important for technicians to verify voltage range, motor type, and application suitability before installation.
