  • Common generic type: CD60
  • Industry Part Number: 2-430

Compatibility & Fitment

  • Designed for starting single-phase electric motors
  • Common applications include HVAC units, air compressors, well pumps, and other fractional horsepower motors

When to Replace

  • Motor hums but does not start or turn
  • Motor starts slowly or requires manual assistance
  • Start winding circuit trips the breaker or blows a fuse
  • Capacitor case is visibly bulging, cracked, or leaking fluid

Installation Tips

  • Disconnect all electrical power to the unit before servicing.
  • Safely discharge the existing capacitor by shorting the terminals with an insulated-handle screwdriver or appropriate discharge tool.
  • Verify the capacitance (uF/MFD) and voltage (VAC) ratings of the new capacitor match the original part's specifications.
  • A replacement capacitor with an equal or higher voltage rating is acceptable.
  • Ensure capacitance is within the motor manufacturer's recommended range.
  • Note the wire positions before disconnecting the old capacitor.

FAQ

If your motor hums or makes a buzzing sound but fails to reach full speed, or if it trips the breaker immediately upon startup, the start capacitor is likely the culprit. You may also notice the motor struggling to turn over or failing to start entirely under load.
Yes, this is a universal-style start capacitor designed for any single-phase electric motor requiring a 430-516 uF rating within the 220-250 VAC range. It is commonly used in air compressors, pool pumps, HVAC blower motors, and various industrial machinery.
Before installation, always discharge the old capacitor using an insulated screwdriver across the terminals to prevent electric shock. Additionally, inspect the motor's centrifugal switch; if the switch is stuck or faulty, it can cause the new capacitor to fail prematurely.
Installation is straightforward and typically takes 10 to 20 minutes. You will need a screwdriver to open the motor housing and a pair of needle-nose pliers to disconnect and reconnect the quick-connect terminals. Ensure the power is completely disconnected before beginning.
Start capacitors are designed for intermittent duty only. Frequent short-cycling, high ambient temperatures, or a faulty centrifugal switch that keeps the capacitor energized longer than necessary will cause the internal components to overheat and eventually fail.
