CBB60 15UF 450V Capacitor with Wire

Maximum Starting Torque: CBB60 15uF 450VAC Motor Run Capacitor

Power your high-demand appliances with the CBB60 15uF 450V Motor Run Capacitor. This industrial-grade metallized polypropylene film capacitor is engineered to provide the high electrical phase shift required by larger single-phase AC motors. Specifically designed for heavy-duty washing machines, industrial fans, and high-pressure water pumps, it ensures a powerful start-up and maintains consistent motor torque under heavy load conditions.

Key Performance Features:

• Robust 15uF Capacity: Rated at 15uF ±5%, this capacitor provides the substantial energy storage needed to kick-start high-load motors and improve overall electrical efficiency.

• Advanced Self-Healing (SH): Features an internal dielectric film that automatically isolates minor electrical faults, preventing total component failure and extending the life of your motor.

• High-Voltage Resilience: Rated for 450VAC, offering a significant safety buffer against voltage spikes and power surges common in domestic and industrial environments.

• Durable & Moisture-Proof: Encased in a flame-retardant, cylindrical plastic shell designed to operate reliably in the humid, vibrating environments of appliance cabinets.

• Secure Lead Wire Connection: Comes equipped with high-quality, insulated copper lead wires for a fast and secure installation, ensuring a low-resistance path for motor current.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Washing Machines: Primary start and run capacitor for large-capacity drum motors.

• Deep Well Pumps: Ideal for maintaining torque in high-pressure water pumping systems.

• Large Air Coolers: Provides stable power for high-volume ventilation and air-cooling fan motors.

• Power Tools: Suitable for bench grinders, table saws, and other 50/60Hz AC motor-driven equipment.

Technical Specs:

•  Model: CBB60

•  Capacitance: 15uF ±5% SH

•  Rated Voltage: 450V AC

•  Frequency: 50/60Hz

Top 3 Customer Questions & Concerns ‍

1. Can I replace a 14uF or 16uF capacitor with this 15uF model?

   • Yes. Most AC motors operate safely within a ±10% capacitance variance. A 15uF unit is an excellent replacement for any original part ranging from 13.5uF to 16.5uF.

2. Does the wiring have a specific polarity?

   • No. CBB60 capacitors are non-polarized AC capacitors. The two wires can be connected to your motor leads in either direction without any risk.

3. How do I know if my 15uF capacitor has failed?

   • Common symptoms include a motor that "hums" but won't turn, a washing machine drum that struggles to spin under a full load, or a motor that gets excessively hot during operation.
