Replaces / Cross-Reference Part Numbers

  • Replaces any round motor start capacitor with matching specifications.
  • Ensure the replacement has a capacitance range of 430-516 uF and a voltage rating of at least 220V.
  • Compatible with type CD60 capacitors of the same rating.

Compatibility & Fitment

  • For use in single-phase AC electric motor starting circuits.
  • Applications include HVAC units, air compressors, well pumps, and refrigeration systems.
  • The voltage rating of the replacement capacitor must be equal to or greater than the original capacitor.

When to Replace

  • Motor hums but fails to start.
  • Motor starts slowly or with low torque.
  • Circuit breaker trips upon motor startup.
  • Visible damage to the existing capacitor, such as bulging, cracking, or fluid leakage.

Installation Tips

  • Disconnect electrical power to the unit before servicing.
  • Discharge the existing capacitor by shorting the terminals with an insulated tool.
  • Confirm the uF/MFD and VAC ratings of the new capacitor match the requirements of the original part.
  • As a non-polarized capacitor, wire connections can be made to either terminal.

FAQ

Common symptoms of a failing start capacitor include the motor humming or buzzing without starting, the motor struggling to reach full speed, or the motor tripping the circuit breaker upon startup. If the capacitor casing appears bulged, cracked, or shows signs of leaking fluid, it must be replaced immediately.
This capacitor is designed for use in single-phase electric motors found in a wide range of applications, including HVAC systems, air compressors, water pumps, and industrial machinery requiring a 430-516 uF rating at 220-250 VAC.
Safety is critical. Before touching the old capacitor, ensure the power supply to the motor is completely disconnected. Because capacitors store an electrical charge even when the power is off, you must discharge the old capacitor by placing an insulated screwdriver across the terminals before attempting to remove it.
The installation is straightforward and typically takes 15 to 30 minutes. You will generally need a screwdriver to access the capacitor housing and a pair of needle-nose pliers to disconnect and reconnect the spade terminals. Ensure the new capacitor is securely mounted in the same orientation as the original.
No. It is essential to match the uF (microfarad) rating specified on your motor's data plate or the original capacitor. Using a capacitor with a significantly different uF rating can prevent the motor from starting correctly or cause permanent damage to the motor windings.
The 50/60 Hz rating indicates the capacitor is compatible with standard electrical frequencies used globally. The 220-250 VAC rating is the maximum voltage the capacitor is designed to withstand; it is safe to use this capacitor in any application requiring this voltage range or lower.
