Tecumseh K146-18 Run Capacitor 378-440 VAC 165 MFD

The Tecumseh K146-18 is a dual-rated run capacitor designed for commercial refrigeration and HVAC applications. This capacitor features a voltage rating of 378-440 VAC and a capacitance of 165 microfarads (MFD), making it suitable for starting and running compressor motors in medium to large refrigeration units.

Key Specifications:

• Voltage Rating: 378-440 VAC
• Capacitance: 165 MFD (microfarads)
• Application: Compressor motor run capacitor
• Designed for Tecumseh compressors and compatible refrigeration systems
• Oval metal case construction for durability
• Temperature rated for commercial refrigeration environments

Run capacitors like the K146-18 remain energized continuously during motor operation, providing improved motor efficiency, reduced power consumption, and extended motor life. This capacitor is commonly used as a direct replacement part in walk-in coolers, freezers, ice machines, and commercial refrigeration equipment. Always verify capacitance and voltage ratings match your original component before installation, and ensure power is disconnected before replacing capacitors.
