CD60 500uF 450V AC Motor Starting Capacitor – Wire Leads Cable Type

The CD60 500uF 450V AC Motor Starting Capacitor (wire leads) is the highest-capacitance offering in the CD60 450V cable-type series, built for the largest single-phase motors in cold storage compressors, commercial freezers, and heavy industrial pump systems.

Wire-leads construction — direct wire connection, no snap-in tabs. Strictly intermittent-duty.
