Start Capacitor
To many single phase AC motors, a start capacitor is an indispensable part. Without it, the motor won’t start while sitting there and making a humming noise. Most often mounted outside the motor, the motor capacitor gives it the initial impetus to rotate its shaft.
Both the electrodes and dielectric of our start capacitor are reinforced around the edges. The electrodes are typically coated with zinc-aluminum alloys through a process known as metallizing or vacuum coating. The coated metal materials are then coiled up by a winding machine before being packed into an aluminum casing.
High-purity castor oil is also added inside the casing to aid in maintaining a high vacuum level, which improves the electrolytic capacitor’s heat resistance and service life. The aluminum enclosure is an explosion proof design, thereby securing maximum safety in operation.
Performance Features
1. A tubular aluminum enclosure is lightweight and frees up valuable space around the motor.
2. Excellent electrical properties, including superior self-healing capability and minimized power loss
3. Unique internal design makes for maximum safety during use.
Where to Use
1. The starting capacitor is suitable for use on a 50Hz single-phase AC motor, providing the initial impetus to rotate.
2. Can be placed in an underground coal mine, mounted on trains and planes or in applications where operating safety is a major concern.
3. A crucial part of 50Hz/60Hz single-phase AC motors used in air conditioners and high-power lighting to compensate for lagging power factor.
Housed in a tubular case made of metal, PF resin, or engineering plastics, the CD60 series aluminum electrolytic capacitor uses pure aluminum foil as anode, covered with a barrier layer of aluminum oxide which acts as a dielectric. The electrolyte, or cathode, is non-solid. Two welded metal tabs, cables or wires stick out from the case as leads.
