160uF/450V Motor Start Capacitor for Home and Industrial Appliances
The 160uF capacitance and 450V nominal voltage start capacitor ensures optimal starting of electric motors in various equipment. Suitable for air conditioners, compressors, water pumps, and fans, this component with a resistant plastic casing guarantees stable operation in temperatures between -40°C and +85°C.
What you get with this product
- Fast and safe start of electric motors — eliminates delays and protects equipment
- Universal compatibility — works with air conditioners, refrigerators, compressors, pumps, and fans
- Simple installation with screw and nut fixing system — mounts in minutes on any surface
- Guaranteed durability with self-healing polypropylene dielectric — withstands high voltages and extreme conditions
- Reliable contact via 4 male terminals — ensures stable connection without risk of disconnection
- Operation in extremely low or high temperatures — withstands from -40°C to +85°C without degradation
How it works and how to install it
The capacitor accumulates the electrical energy needed to give a strong impulse at motor startup, reducing current consumption and extending equipment life. Installation is done by connecting the 4 male terminals to the motor terminals, according to the appliance's wiring diagram, and fixing the capacitor to the desired surface using the included screw and nut. No advanced electrical knowledge is required, but it is recommended to completely disconnect the power before installation.
Frequently asked questions
Is this capacitor suitable for my air conditioner?
Yes, if your motor requires a 160uF capacitor with a voltage of 450V. Check the label on your old capacitor or the appliance's technical manual to confirm the correct values.
Can I use this capacitor for a submersible water pump?
Yes, the capacitor is compatible with water pumps, compressors, and other single-phase motors that require a start capacitor with these technical specifications.
What does a 5% tolerance in capacitance mean?
It means that the actual value of the capacitor can vary between 152uF and 168uF, which is perfectly normal and does not affect motor operation in any way.
