True 842620 Start Capacitor 143 Mfd 330 Volt

Product Description

The TRUE 842620 is a start capacitor rated at 143 microfarads (MFD) and 330 volts, designed for use in refrigeration and commercial cooling equipment. Start capacitors provide a high-torque boost to the compressor motor during startup and then drop out of the circuit once the motor reaches operating speed. This unit is rated for both 50 Hz and 60 Hz systems, making it suitable for a wide range of commercial refrigeration applications. HVAC-R technicians and refrigeration service pros install this capacitor as a direct replacement when the original component fails to hold a charge or causes hard-start conditions.

This start capacitor is used in commercial refrigeration systems where compressor motor startup torque is critical. It is a replacement part for TRUE refrigeration equipment, originally superseding part number 2252074 (also referenced as 2252274). Typical installation scenarios include walk-in coolers, reach-in refrigerators, and similar commercial refrigeration units that rely on a start capacitor to initiate compressor operation under load.

Key Features

• 143 MFD capacitance rating provides high starting torque for compressor motors
• 330-volt rating handles the electrical demands of commercial refrigeration compressors
• Compatible with both 50 Hz and 60 Hz electrical systems
• Direct OEM replacement superseding part numbers 2252074 and 2252274
• Compact form factor at 11.05 x 3.85 x 2.05 inches for straightforward fitment in existing housings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM replacement for TRUE refrigeration equipment, superseding original part numbers 2252074 and 2252274. Consult equipment documentation to confirm fitment before installation.

Installation Notes

Start capacitors are installed by qualified refrigeration or HVAC-R technicians. Always disconnect and lock out power to the unit before handling capacitors, and discharge any residual voltage stored in the old capacitor using an appropriate resistor before removal. Verify that the replacement MFD rating and voltage rating match or exceed the original equipment specification. Follow applicable electrical codes and manufacturer service documentation throughout the replacement procedure.
