Package contents

• Start capacitor CD60 50 µF / 450 VAC with wire leads

Why choose this product?

• Clearly defined electrical parameters for motor starting circuits
• Marking values directly on the housing for easy identification during service
• Suitable for common applications with 230 VAC (50/60 Hz) power supply

Installation and operating instructions

• Before replacing, verify the required capacity and voltage class according to the motor connection.
• After disconnecting the power supply, always wait for the capacitor to discharge and verify zero voltage before handling.
• Install in a way that prevents mechanical stress on the terminals and overheating in a closed space.

Safety notice

• Working with 230-450 VAC is dangerous; installation and service should only be performed with the power disconnected and by a qualified person
• The capacitor may remain charged even after disconnection; always ensure safe discharge before touching the terminals
• Do not use if the case is damaged, deformed or if electrolyte leaks; in such cases, discard the capacitor.
