Regal Rexnord - LEESON 003049.08P Motor Start Capacitor MFD - 1190-1415 165VAC

The Regal Rexnord - LEESON 003049.08P is a factory OEM replacement start capacitor designed to provide the initial electrical charge needed to start single-phase electric motors. This high-capacity start capacitor features a capacitance range of 1190-1415 microfarads (µF) with a voltage rating of 165 VAC, making it suitable for larger motor applications requiring substantial starting torque.

Key Specifications:

• Capacitance Range: 1190-1415 microfarads (µF/MFD)
• Voltage Rating: 165 VAC
• Frequency: 50/60 Hz
• Includes built-in bleed resistor for safe discharge
• BMI part number cross-reference: 092A1190B165DE8X
• Factory OEM original replacement part

Application:

Start capacitors are essential components in single-phase electric motors, briefly shifting phase on the start winding to create increased starting torque. This capacitor possesses a very large capacitance value for its size and voltage rating, making it suitable for demanding motor applications. As with all start capacitors, this component is designed for intermittent duty only and should not remain energized continuously.

Important Notes:

This is a genuine LEESON factory replacement part manufactured to original equipment specifications. Start capacitors are critical safety components and should only be replaced with properly rated parts. If a start capacitor fails prematurely, it may indicate a faulty starting circuit or relay in the motor that should be diagnosed and repaired.
