KEMET Motor Run Capacitor, 40 µF, 470 V, Stud Mount M8

The KEMET C27.6 Series Motor Run Capacitor is a reliable film capacitor packaged in a robust plastic can, engineered specifically for AC motor applications. By operating in series with the start winding of a single-phase electric motor, this component ensures efficient starting and significantly increases operational torque.

This capacitor is highly versatile, with primary application fields including air fans, water pumps, circulators, and low-power electric motors. The optimal choice of capacitor depends on the required mechanical connection and the expected operational lifespan of the user's specific system.

Built with a metallised polypropylene dielectric, it delivers consistent performance across an operating temperature range of -25°C to +85°C. It features a rated voltage of 470 VAC and a capacitance tolerance of ±5%. The component is designed to strict safety standards, holding a Safety Class P0 rating and a UL94-V0 disk classification. It offers an expected life of 10,000 hours at 420 VAC (Class B) and 3,000 hours at 470 VAC (Class C).
