Replaces / Cross-Reference Part Numbers

• Universal replacement for any round motor start capacitor with matching capacitance and voltage specifications.
• Commonly designated as a CD60 type capacitor.

Compatibility & Fitment

• Designed for single-phase AC electric motors that require a start capacitor.
• Applications include HVAC units, air compressors, well pumps, and various other electric motors.
• To ensure compatibility, the replacement capacitor's uF/MFD range must match the original part's specification.
• The voltage rating of this capacitor (220-250 VAC) must be equal to or greater than the voltage rating of the capacitor being replaced.

When to Replace

• The motor hums but does not start.
• The motor starts slowly or requires manual assistance to turn over.
• The circuit breaker trips upon motor startup.
• The original capacitor shows physical signs of failure such as bulging, cracking, or leaking fluid.

Installation Tips

• Disconnect all electrical power to the unit before performing installation.
• Safely discharge the existing capacitor by carefully shorting its terminals with a resistor or an insulated-handle screwdriver.
• Note the wiring configuration before removing the old capacitor.
• As a non-polarized AC capacitor, wires can be connected to either terminal.
