Replaces / Cross-Reference Part Numbers

  • Serves as a universal replacement for any start capacitor with matching electrical specifications.
  • Compatible with parts from brands including JCM, TEMCo, BlueStars, Seentech, and Anxingo that meet the same uF and VAC ratings.
  • Replaces common model type CD60 capacitors within this specific range.

Compatibility & Fitment

  • Designed for single-phase AC electric motors requiring a starting capacitor.
  • Applications include HVAC units, air conditioners, refrigeration compressors, well pumps, and other motor-driven equipment.
  • Verify fit by matching capacitance, voltage, and physical dimensions with the original component.

When to Replace

  • Motor hums or buzzes but fails to start.
  • Motor starts slowly or requires manual assistance to turn over.
  • Circuit breaker trips repeatedly when the motor attempts to start.
  • Visible signs of damage on the old capacitor, such as bulging, cracking, or fluid leakage.

Installation Tips

  • Disconnect all electrical power to the equipment before servicing.
  • Safely discharge the old capacitor by shorting the terminals with a resistor or an insulated-handle tool.
  • Confirm the uF/MFD and VAC ratings of the new capacitor match the original part.
  • Note or photograph the wire connections before removal to ensure correct installation.
  • Securely mount the new capacitor in the original bracket.

FAQ

This start capacitor is used on many single-phase electric motors that require a 189-227 microfarad (uF/MFD) start capacitor with a 220-250 VAC rating and 50/60 Hz operation. Common applications include air compressor motors, pumps, blowers, fans, and other motor-driven equipment. Compatibility depends on matching the motor's required capacitance range, voltage rating, terminal style, and physical fit inside the capacitor housing or motor compartment.
The capacitance range should match as closely as possible to 189-227 uF. The voltage rating should be the same as or higher than the original capacitor's rating. For example, if your old capacitor is 220 VAC or 250 VAC and the microfarad range matches, this may be suitable. Do not replace it with a lower voltage-rated capacitor.
Common signs include a motor that hums but will not start, hard starting, intermittent starting, tripped breakers or overloads during startup, or a motor that only starts if the shaft is spun manually. In some cases, the capacitor may appear swollen, cracked, or leaking.
Check the label on your existing capacitor and verify all key specs: 189-227 uF (or MFD), 220-250 VAC, round style, and 50/60 Hz use. Also compare the terminal configuration and the available mounting space. The safest match is the same capacitance range and an equal-or-higher voltage rating.
On many motors, replacement is a moderate repair that takes about 15 to 30 minutes. Typical tools include a screwdriver, nut driver or socket, needle-nose pliers, and a multimeter if testing first. Always disconnect power completely and discharge the old capacitor safely before touching the terminals, since capacitors can retain a dangerous charge even after power is removed.
If the motor still will not start properly, inspect the start switch or potential relay, motor windings, wiring connections, overload protector, and power supply voltage. On belt-driven equipment, also check for a seized pump, compressor, blower wheel, or other mechanical load that may be preventing the motor from accelerating.
Start capacitors commonly fail from heat, frequent stop-start cycling, voltage stress, age, vibration, or a motor that stays in the start circuit too long because of a faulty switch or relay. Overloaded or binding equipment can also shorten capacitor life by making the motor draw excessive current during startup.
