Replaces / Cross-Reference Part Numbers

• This capacitor serves as a universal replacement for any start capacitor with matching specifications.
• Replaces parts from brands such as BMI, Appli Parts, and others sharing the same MFD, voltage rating, and physical size.
• Common model type: CD60

Compatibility & Fitment

• Designed for intermittent duty in AC motor starting circuits.
• Suitable for single-phase electric motors requiring a start capacitor for initial torque.
• Commonly used in well pumps, HVAC units, air compressors, refrigeration systems, and other motor-driven equipment.
• Verify physical dimensions to ensure a proper fit within existing mounting brackets or enclosures.

When to Replace

• Motor hums but fails to start or struggles to reach full speed.
• Circuit breaker trips upon motor startup.
• Capacitor shows physical damage, such as bulging, cracking, or leaking fluid.
• Capacitance measures outside the 145-175 MFD range when tested with a multimeter.

Installation Tips

• Disconnect all electrical power to the equipment before beginning installation.
• Safely discharge the old capacitor by shorting the terminals with a resistor or an insulated tool.
• Confirm the voltage rating of the new capacitor is equal to or greater than the original.
• Ensure the MFD (uf) range of the new capacitor matches the manufacturer's requirement for the motor.
• Note the wiring configuration before disconnecting the old capacitor to ensure correct installation.
