Value Collection 11913 Motor Capacitor 145-175 Mfd

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 11913 is a motor run capacitor rated at 145-175 microfarads (MFD) and 110/125 volts. Motor run capacitors maintain a continuous phase shift in single-phase AC motors, improving torque and running efficiency. This capacitor weighs 0.2 pounds and is a single-unit package suitable for direct field replacement. HVAC technicians, electricians, and motor service shops install this type of capacitor when a failed or out-of-tolerance unit causes a motor to run hot, hum, or fail to start under load.

This capacitor is suited for use with single-phase electric motors operating on 110 or 125 volt AC circuits. Typical applications include blower motors, exhaust fan motors, and other induction motors found in light commercial and residential HVAC equipment. It is sold and packaged as a single unit, making it practical for one-at-a-time field replacements.

Key Features

• 145-175 MFD capacitance range for flexible motor matching
• Rated for 110/125 volt AC motor circuits
• Lightweight at 0.2 pounds for easy handling in tight equipment compartments
• Single-unit packaging suitable for field service calls
• Motor run type for continuous-duty operation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for single-phase induction motors operating on 110/125 volt AC circuits requiring a 145-175 MFD run capacitor.

Installation Notes

Motor run capacitors must be installed by a qualified electrician or licensed HVAC technician in accordance with the NEC and applicable local codes. Always disconnect and lock out power to the equipment before handling capacitors, as they can retain a lethal charge even after power is removed — discharge the capacitor safely before touching terminals. Verify that the replacement MFD rating and voltage rating meet or exceed the motor nameplate specifications before installation.
