The VEXUNGA 45/5 uF 370/440V Dual Run Start Capacitor is designed for air conditioning units, heat pumps, and condensers. It features a dual run start, meaning it can replace both 370V and 440V capacitors, making it versatile for various applications. With a capacitance of 45/5 microfarads, it fits standard needs for many AC units.
The round shape and compact size (2.36 inches in diameter and 3.35 inches in height) make it easy to install in tight spaces. The operating temperature range from -40℃ to +70℃ ensures reliability in extreme conditions, and its compliance with US standards like EIA-456-A and UL listings speaks to its quality and safety.
The polypropylene material adds durability, and it has a safety rating of 10,000 AFC (Available Fault Current), which is a plus for safety-conscious users. However, the 6% tolerance in capacitance might be a consideration for those needing highly precise specifications. Brand reputation is solid, but as with any component, ensuring compatibility with your specific AC model is crucial. This capacitor is a good choice for those looking for a reliable, versatile, and durable component for their AC units.
The Upgraded Version 270-324 Mfd uF 110-125VAC Round Motor Start Capacitor by Blue Stars is designed to provide reliable performance for electric motors. It offers a wide capacitance range of 270-324 µF and a voltage rating of 110-125V, which is suitable for various motor start applications. The round shape and compact size (36mm x 70mm) make it easy to fit into different devices.
Its broad operating temperature range (-40℃ to 65℃) ensures it can function effectively in diverse environmental conditions, making it versatile for different climates. The high-quality aluminum construction and UL, CE, and TUV certifications ensure durability and adherence to safety standards. Additionally, the lifetime protection guarantee provides peace of mind against potential defects or issues.
Its capacitance tolerance of +/- 20% may not offer the precision required for some highly sensitive applications. While it is well-suited for general motor starting purposes, users needing exact capacitance values might need to look elsewhere. This capacitor is best for those seeking a robust, long-lasting solution for their motors without the necessity for exact capacitance accuracy. The inclusion of multiple replacement compatibility makes it a versatile choice for replacing various start capacitors in the market.
The BlueStars 108-130 µF start capacitor is designed for single-phase electric motors, providing a good match for those needing a reliable replacement with a voltage rating of 110-125 VAC. Its capacitance range of 108-130 µF and ±20% tolerance suits many motor start applications, especially in residential or light industrial use. The round shape and compact size (36mm x 70mm) allow it to fit easily into standard motor housings.
It handles temperatures between -40℃ and +65℃, which covers most typical operating environments but might be less ideal for extreme heat situations. Made from high-quality bakelite, this capacitor promises durability and stability over time, with low power loss and no harmful PCBs, which is good for safety and environmental concerns. Another plus is the 10,000 AFC anti-explosion safety feature, which adds peace of mind during operation.
Its tolerance of ±20% is fairly standard but not very tight, so slight variations in performance can be expected. Also, since it’s made in China, some users might be cautious about quality consistency, although the brand claims to meet OEM standards and offers a lifetime protection warranty. This capacitor is suitable for those looking for a budget-friendly, dependable start capacitor that fits many common motor models, but if very precise specs or high-temperature resilience are required, other options might be preferred.
