Replaces / Cross-Reference Part Numbers

• Direct replacement for any capacitor with matching specifications.
• Ensure the new capacitor matches the 16 µF capacitance and has a voltage rating of 250V AC or higher.

Compatibility & Fitment

• Designed for single-phase AC motors and pumps.
• Commonly used in water pumps, fans, air conditioners, and other electric motor applications.
• Confirm physical dimensions of the original capacitor for proper fit.

When to Replace

• Motor hums but fails to start or starts slowly.
• Motor runs with reduced power or overheats.
• Visible signs of damage to the capacitor, such as swelling, bulging, or leaking fluid.
• Capacitance measures outside of the ±5% tolerance range when tested with a multimeter.

Installation Tips

• Disconnect all electrical power to the equipment before servicing.
• Safely discharge the old capacitor by shorting the terminals with a resistor rated for the voltage.
• AC motor run capacitors are non-polarized; wires can be connected to either terminal.
• Verify the µF (MFD) rating matches the original component exactly.
• Ensure the voltage rating of the new capacitor is equal to or greater than the original.
