Description
Mars 11987 Round Start Capacitor Overview
The Mars 11987 is a heavy-duty round start capacitor engineered to deliver the high-torque starting boost that single-phase HVAC motors demand. With a wide capacitance range of 340–408 microfarads and a dual voltage rating of 220/250 VAC, this capacitor is a versatile solution for a broad range of residential and light commercial applications.
Key Features
- Capacitance range: 340–408 microfarads (MFD/µF)
- Voltage rating: 220/250 VAC
- Round form factor for easy drop-in replacement
- Designed for single-phase motor start circuits
- Built to Mars quality standards for long service life
- Compatible with a wide range of HVAC compressors, condenser fan motors, and blower motors
Application
Start capacitors provide the extra electrical boost needed to get a motor spinning from a dead stop. Once the motor reaches operating speed, the start capacitor is switched out of the circuit. The Mars 11987 is well-suited for use in air conditioning compressors, heat pump systems, and other single-phase motor applications where reliable, repeatable starting is critical.
Why Choose Mars Capacitors
Mars (Motors & Armatures) is a trusted name in HVAC electrical components, known for consistent quality and broad cross-reference compatibility. The 11987 is a direct replacement option for OEM start capacitors that fall within the 340–408 MFD, 220/250 VAC specification range.
