CD60 Motor Starting Capacitor 53-64uF 330V AC Snap-In

The CD60 Motor Starting Capacitor is an ultra-compact electrolytic start capacitor designed for micro and sub-fractional single-phase AC motors. With a capacitance range of 53–64 µF (MFD) and a 330V AC rating at 50/60 Hz, it provides the precise, controlled energy burst needed to start small motors that larger capacitors would simply overwhelm.

Its diminutive phenolic resin case fits into the tightest compartments — behind refrigerator panels, inside compact fan housings, and within portable appliances where every cubic inch counts. The snap-in terminals deliver a secure, tool-free connection, making it the perfect drop-in replacement for aging or failed start capacitors in low-capacitance applications.

Key Features

• Capacitance Range: 53–64 µF (microfarads), precision-sized for micro motors.
• Voltage Rating: 330V AC, compatible with 110V–230V motor systems.
• Dual Frequency: Operates on both 50 Hz and 60 Hz power supplies.
• Snap-In Mounting: Quick, secure installation with no extra hardware.
• Ultra-Compact Profile: Smallest case in the CD60 lineup, ideal for tight spaces.
• Intermittent Duty: Designed exclusively for short-duration startup cycles.

Applications

Direct replacement for low-capacitance start circuits in the following equipment:

Mini Fans & Ventilation

• Desktop and personal fans
• Computer cooling fans (AC models)
• Cabinet vent fans

Compact Refrigeration

• Mini-fridge compressors
• Wine cooler compressors
• Beverage dispenser compressors

Small Household Appliances

• Range hood exhaust motors
• Over-the-range microwave fans

Installation & Safety

• This capacitor is for motor starting only — must be used with a functioning relay or centrifugal switch.
• Continuous operation will cause overheating and premature failure.
• Disconnect all power before installation or removal.
• Confirm capacitance range and voltage rating match your motor's nameplate specifications.
• Discharge any residual voltage safely before handling — capacitors can store charge after power is disconnected.
