MOTOR START AC ELECTROLYTIC

MSC SERIES

The MSC Series is a range of AC electrolytic capacitors.
These capacitors are most often used to provide the
torque necessary to start AC motors and in other intermit­tent AC applications.

FEATURES:

• Two .250” Quick Connect terminals

• Round moisture and oil resistant plastic case

• 110VAC to 330VAC

• Quick disconnect terminals

• Recessed terminals

• Long life and high reliability

RATINGS

Capacitance Range:

110/125 Volts - 21 µF to 1200µF
220/250 Volts - 21 µF to 324µF
330 Volts - 21 µF to 259µF

PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATIONS

Operating Temperature Range: -40 °C to +65°C
Power Factor: 10% Max.; 12% ≤30µF
Operating Frequency: 47 - 60Hz

MOUNTING

Vertical mounting of the capacitor with the terminals
up is recommended. However, horizontal mounting is
acceptable providing the vent is located in the up posi­tion.

Vertical mounting with the terminals down is not
recommended because the capacitor life may be re­duced and the operation of the pressure relief vent im­paired.

CLEANING

Solvent residues on the capacitors after cleaning may
penetrate the seal and cause internal corrosion result­ing in shortened life. Alcohol or water detergent clean­ing is not usually harmful but halogenated cleaning
solvents are not recommended and should be
avoided.

SAFETY

Because the watt-second value of these capacitors is
high, precautions should be taken during the testing
of these devices.

Discharge resistors should be specified when there is
a possibility of a residual charge left on the capacito
or to protect contacts. Mis-application, such as ex­ceeding design limits or applying continuous AC volt­age,

may result in destruction or explosion of capaci­tors.
