Powermate 166-0187 Start Capacitor F3C2

The Powermate 166-0187 Start Capacitor F3C2 is the essential component which promotes the work performance of electric motors especially in electric tools and appliances. When motor circuit breaker is closed, it temporarily increase motor’s starting torque enough to overcome the initial resistance and thereby smooth the motor’s restart. This capacitor stores and releases electrical energy to improve the motor’s start up efficiency. Benefits were found to include increased motor performance, reduced wear, and increased motor life. It is used especially in compressors, pumps and similar machines needing plenty of starting power. It reduce the risk of overheating and damage by providing reliable, energy efficient motor starts.
