Replaces / Cross-Reference Part Numbers

This capacitor serves as a universal replacement for any start capacitor with the same capacitance range and voltage rating. It can replace parts from brands such as Aerovox, Packard, Mars, GE, and others, provided the specifications match.

  • Capacitance must be within the 189-227 uF range.
  • Voltage must be at least 220-250 VAC. A higher voltage rating is acceptable, but a lower rating is not.
  • Physical dimensions should be checked for proper fit.

Compatibility & Fitment

Designed for intermittent duty in the start circuit of single-phase AC electric motors. Common applications include:

  • HVAC units (compressors and fan motors)
  • Pool and spa pumps
  • Well pumps
  • Air compressors
  • Refrigeration units
  • Gate openers
  • Other motor-driven machinery

When to Replace

A failing start capacitor can cause motor issues. Consider replacement if you observe the following symptoms:

  • Motor hums but does not start or turn over.
  • Motor starts slowly or struggles to reach full operating speed.
  • Circuit breaker trips repeatedly when the motor tries to start.
  • The existing capacitor shows physical damage, such as bulging, cracking, or leaking fluid.

Installation Tips

  • Safety First:Disconnect all electrical power to the equipment before beginning installation.
  • Discharge Old Capacitor:Before handling, safely discharge the old capacitor by shorting its terminals with an insulated-handle screwdriver or a resistor.
  • Verify Specifications:Confirm the uF rating and VAC rating of the new capacitor match the requirements of the original part.
  • Check Connections:Note the wiring configuration before disconnecting the old unit. Connect the new capacitor in the same manner.
  • Secure Mounting:Ensure the capacitor is mounted securely in its bracket to prevent damage from vibration.

FAQs

If your motor hums but fails to reach full speed, trips the circuit breaker upon startup, or struggles to turn over entirely, the start capacitor is likely failing. You may also notice the motor housing feels unusually hot or the capacitor itself shows signs of physical damage, such as bulging, leaking, or a burnt smell.
This 189-227 uF capacitor is designed for single-phase AC motors operating at 50/60 Hz. It is a standard replacement for CD60 style capacitors, including cross-references such as CD60B-2EJ189227R and FHP# 700-050. Ensure your existing capacitor matches the 189-227 uF rating and the 220-250 VAC specification before installation.
Always disconnect the power supply to the motor before attempting any repairs. Capacitors can store a lethal electrical charge even after the power is disconnected. You must safely discharge the old capacitor by placing an insulated screwdriver across the terminals before handling it.
Installation is generally straightforward and takes about 15 to 30 minutes for most users. You will primarily need a screwdriver to open the motor housing and potentially a pair of needle-nose pliers to disconnect and reconnect the spade terminals. No specialized electrical training is required, provided you follow proper safety and discharge procedures.
Start capacitors are designed for intermittent duty to provide the initial torque required to get the motor spinning. Failure is often caused by frequent cycling, high ambient temperatures, or age-related degradation of the internal dielectric material. If your motor is frequently starting and stopping, the capacitor will reach the end of its service life faster.
No, this is a non-polarized AC capacitor. You can connect the wires to either terminal without affecting the performance or safety of the motor.
