Compatibility & Fitment

• Designed for single-phase 110-125V AC electric motors.
• Suitable for use in HVAC units, air conditioners, compressors, pumps, and other motor-driven equipment.
• Universal fit for applications requiring a capacitor with the specified 233-280 uF range.

When to Replace

• Motor fails to start or hums without turning.
• Motor starts slowly or struggles to reach full speed.
• Unit short cycles (turns on and off frequently).
• Visible damage to the existing capacitor, such as bulging, leaking, or burn marks.
• Capacitor tests outside of its rated capacitance range with a multimeter.

Installation Tips

• Disconnect all electrical power to the unit before performing any service.
• Safely discharge the existing capacitor by shorting the terminals with an insulated screwdriver.
• Verify that the voltage and capacitance ratings of the new capacitor match the original part.
• Note terminal connections before removing the old capacitor. This is a non-polarized capacitor; wire leads can be connected to either terminal.
• Ensure all electrical connections are clean and secure.
• Mount the new capacitor in the original bracket or a secure location.
