Xylem-Bell & Gossett M28196 Motor Start Capacitor 20 MFD 270V

The Xylem-Bell and Gossett M28196 Motor Start Capacitor 20 MFD, 270 V is an additional starting torque required by electric motors in HVAC systems and pumps. Constructed to high standards, it assists in providing motor starting and operation. This start capacitor is temporary storage of electrical energy which provides a temporary surge of current to the start winding of the motor when the motor initially energizes. The added torque assists the motor to overcome the starting resistance and start rotating effectively. When the motor becomes up to speed, the capacitor is removed off the circuit.
