Allen-Bradley CDB60 Motor Starting Capacitor

Description:

The CDB60 Motor Starting Capacitor 300-400uF 240VAC is used in single-phase motor starting systems to provide the high starting torque required to initiate motor rotation under load conditions. Commonly installed in air compressors, pumps, refrigeration equipment, HVAC systems, and industrial machinery where reliable motor startup performance is essential. Maintenance teams, OEM engineers, and system integrators use the CDB60 capacitor for motor repairs, preventive maintenance, retrofit projects, and replacement of failed starting capacitors.

Applications:

The CDB60 Motor Starting Capacitor 300-400uF 240VAC is commonly used in industrial and commercial motor-driven equipment including air compressors, water pumps, refrigeration systems, ventilation equipment, agricultural machinery, and HVAC units where a temporary high-capacitance boost is required to start single-phase electric motors efficiently.
