Yes, it is rated for that purpose.
The 210 is too much for that, the overload would never pop, the 410 would work better but it's the same story, use the RCO810 for that little thing man, it's rated to 1/5th if my memory serves me correctly.

Refrigeration systems that had or did not have run capacitors were used. Compressors with a power range of 1/3 to 1/2 horsepower are recommended. RLA maximum of 13. 3 Amps.
It's a SUPCO (Supply Chain and Distribution Organization).
Selected User Reviews For Sealed Unit Parts RCO210 Relay Capacitor Overlay
The fridge required over 800 Watts for several seconds to start up when it was first built. So this, combined with a 750 watt MSW inverter, was unable to start it reliably. The thermal relay would then flip, causing the inverter to shut down due to overload. br>br>After doing a lot of research, I discovered that I had PTC (no run or start capacitor). To start the motor, the fridge used "unlimited" current from the wall socket. br>br>The RCO210 is the smallest of SUPCO's three replacement units. RCO410 and RCO810 are the remaining two. br>br>You disconnect the compressor's external connections, PTRC, and relay, and reconnect it with the three colored wires on the unit. Then connect the two black power leads to the power from the thermostat control knob. br>br>Now that I have a 300 Go Power PSW inverter, I can easily start my fridge using battery power. I now have a viable camping solution for using solar power to power a freezer/fridge. I'm not sure why this start capacitor and relay aren't standard on refrigerators, given how inexpensive they are. It's easy to choose between this and a $400 1000W inverter.
The problem was that the compressor wouldn't turn on; after a few seconds, you could hear a click, but that was it. It was successful! br>br> The freezer began to cool as soon as the compressor began to run. It had shut off, and the thermometer I had inside read 0 degrees when I checked it a while later. It clicked and started up again while I was looking, exactly as it should. br>br>Installation was straightforward, save for the tight quarters I had to work in - But that wasn't the fault of the repair part; all I needed were a screwdriver and a pair of needle-nose pliers for tools. The old parts were removed with needle-nosed pliers, and two freezer wires were prepared for the new part with a wire stripper.
Compressor relays that have failed should be replaced immediately. Kenmore, 35 years old, was given a new lease on life.
