Baldor Electric Company EC1216C06SP Start Capacitor

EC1216C06SP is Baldor's start capacitor for single‑phase motors, specified for 216–259 μF at 250 VAC and sized at about 2.06 inches in diameter by 4 inches long (model L1410T). This electrolytic capacitor operates on 50/60 Hz power and carries a +65°C temperature rating, making it suitable for use inside standard motor enclosures. Designed as a replacement start capacitor for Baldor Reliance motors, it provides the initial surge of starting current and the necessary phase shift to start the motor reliably when the specification calls for 216–259 μF at 250 VAC. It is a Baldor catalog part used in compatible motors that require these exact start-capacitor values, reinforcing the motor’s startup performance in appropriate Baldor single‑phase applications.
