WEET WFS-D START Industrial Electric Capacitors have a wide range of applications. However, it should be noted that a faulty capacitor must be replaced immediately; otherwise, it may burn out the motor winding.

But do you know how to identify a defective START Industrial Electric Capacitors?

Bakelite Case CD60 Start Capacitor Failure Symptoms:

1. Abnormal motor starting (most intuitive)

• The motor starts extremely slowly, or can only start after being manually turned.

• The motor stops immediately after starting or trips frequently.

• A burning smell comes from the capacitor during startup, caused by internal leakage, rapid temperature rise in a short time and odor emission.

2. Capacitor appearance (visible at a glance)

• The case is bulging or swollen.

• Liquid leakage or oil seepage.

• Cracking of the casing.

• Rusty or loose pins.

3. Measurement with a multimeter

• If the capacitance deviation exceeds 10% — for example, a 100μF capacitor drops to 70μF — it indicates a faulty capacitor.

WEET would like to remind you that START Industrial Electric Capacitors is designed for motor starting only and will be disconnected by a centrifugal switch after the motor starts.

These are the bakelite case CD60 start capacitor failure symptoms. We hope this information is helpful to you.
