Value Collection 11924 Motor Capacitor 400-480 Mfd

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 11924 is a run capacitor rated at 400 to 480 microfarads (MFD) and designed for single-phase AC motors operating at 110 or 125 volts. Run capacitors store and release electrical energy to keep motor windings energized in proper phase, maintaining steady torque and efficient operation after startup. This unit is a direct-replacement style capacitor suited for use in motor circuits where a wide MFD range tolerance is required. HVAC technicians, electricians, and electromechanical service pros are the primary installers for this type of component.

This capacitor is applicable in single-phase motor applications across residential and light commercial environments. Common installation scenarios include replacement service on motors that exhibit low torque, humming, or failure to start — symptoms that often indicate a failed or out-of-tolerance run capacitor. The 110/125-volt rating covers standard low-voltage motor circuits found in fans, pumps, and similar rotating equipment. The wide MFD range of 400 to 480 allows fitment across motors that call for capacitance within that tolerance band.

Key Features

• 400 to 480 MFD capacitance range covers motors requiring capacitance within that tolerance band
• Rated for 110/125-volt single-phase AC motor circuits
• Compact form factor at 0.335 pounds for easy handling in tight motor compartments
• Single-unit packaging — no multi-pack quantity required

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement capacitor for single-phase AC motors rated at 110 or 125 volts with a required capacitance between 400 and 480 MFD.

Installation Notes

Capacitor replacement is typically performed by a licensed electrician or HVAC technician. Always de-energize and lock out the equipment at the disconnect before handling capacitors, as they can retain a dangerous charge even after power is removed — discharge the capacitor through a resistive load before touching terminals. Verify that the replacement MFD rating and voltage rating meet or exceed the motor nameplate requirements before installation. Follow applicable NEC guidelines for motor circuit service and replacement.
