  • SKU: 84082160899

Compatibility & Fitment

  • Universal design for single-phase AC electric motors requiring a start capacitor.
  • Common applications include HVAC units, air conditioners, compressors, pool pumps, and other motorized equipment.
  • Fits a wide range of OEM and aftermarket systems that specify a 270-324 Mfd, 250V start capacitor.

When to Replace

  • Motor hums but struggles or fails to start.
  • Motor starts slowly or requires manual assistance to turn.
  • Circuit breaker trips repeatedly upon motor startup.
  • Visible signs of failure on the existing capacitor, such as bulging, leaking oil, or burn marks.

Installation Tips

  • Disconnect all electrical power to the equipment before beginning work.
  • Safely discharge the old capacitor by shorting the terminals with an insulated screwdriver.
  • Verify the replacement capacitor's Mfd/uF and VAC ratings match the original component. The voltage rating can be equal to or greater than the original, but never lower.
  • Note the wire connections before removal to ensure correct installation.

FAQ

This round start capacitor is used on many single-phase electric motors that require a 270-324 uF capacitor rated for 220-250 VAC at 50/60 Hz. Compatibility is determined by matching the microfarad range, voltage rating, capacitor type, and terminal style to your original part. Always verify the label on the old capacitor or the motor's parts diagram before ordering.
The microfarad rating should match the original capacitor's specified range as closely as possible. The voltage rating must meet or exceed the original requirement. For example, if your old start capacitor is 220-250 VAC, this is a direct electrical match for that rating. Do not substitute a lower voltage capacitor, and do not replace a start capacitor with a run capacitor.
A failing start capacitor often causes a motor to hum but not start, start slowly, trip the breaker, overheat, or need a manual spin to get moving. On equipment such as pumps, compressors, fans, or shop machinery, you may also notice intermittent starting or a burnt electrical smell near the motor housing.
Replacement is usually a moderate repair that takes about 15 to 30 minutes if the capacitor is easy to access. Typical tools include a screwdriver, nut driver, needle-nose pliers, and a phone or marker to record wire locations. Disconnect power completely before service, and safely discharge the old capacitor before touching the terminals.
Confirm the old capacitor's uF range, voltage, shape, and terminal layout. Inspect the motor for other issues such as damaged wiring, a stuck centrifugal switch, seized bearings, overheating, or a load that is preventing startup. If the old capacitor failed due to heat or repeated hard starts, correcting the underlying motor or equipment problem can help prevent another failure.
Start capacitors commonly fail from age, heat, frequent start-stop cycles, overvoltage, vibration, or a motor that is drawing excessive current during startup. In some cases, a bad start switch or a motor that stays in the start circuit too long will overheat the capacitor and shorten its life.
This is a start capacitor. Start capacitors provide a high burst of capacitance to help a single-phase motor begin turning, then they are taken out of the circuit by a switch or relay. They are not interchangeable with run capacitors, which stay energized continuously during normal operation.
