Compatibility & Fitment

• Designed for intermittent duty in the starting circuits of single-phase AC motors.
• Common applications include HVAC units, air compressors, well pumps, and other electric motors requiring a starting torque boost.
• Verify that the voltage and capacitance range match the original motor or equipment manufacturer's specifications.

When to Replace

• Motor hums but fails to start or struggles to turn over.
• Circuit breaker trips when the motor attempts to start.
• The original capacitor shows visible signs of damage, such as bulging, cracking, or leaking fluid.
• The motor starts slowly or without sufficient torque.

Installation Tips

• Disconnect all electrical power to the equipment before beginning installation.
• Safely discharge the existing capacitor by shorting the terminals with an insulated screwdriver or appropriate discharge tool.
• Note the terminal connections before removing the original capacitor.
• Ensure the replacement capacitor's voltage rating is equal to or higher than the original part.
• Match the capacitance (uF/MFD) range to the motor's requirement for proper operation.
