Description
Start-Run Capacitor 6 µF (6 uF) 450V CBB60 (∅30×70 mm, 4-pin, M8 bolt)
The CBB60 metallized polypropylene capacitor with a capacity of 6 µF is designed to function as a phase-shifting run or start element in single-phase AC asynchronous motor circuits with a frequency of 50/60 Hz. The model is housed in a cylindrical plastic casing with an M8 threaded bolt mounting on the bottom and features 4 flat terminals (6.3 mm Faston) for quick and reliable connection without soldering.
Key Advantages and Features:
- Self-healing structure: The polypropylene dielectric with a metallized layer provides resistance to short-term voltage surges and the ability to restore dielectric strength after a breakdown.
- Low dielectric losses: Minimal internal resistance prevents excessive heating of the capacitor during continuous multi-hour motor operation.
- Convenient connection (4-pin): Dual terminals (2 groups of contacts) simplify wiring and the connection of parallel circuits or sensors without using external twists.
- Reliable mounting: An M8 metal stud bolt on the end of the housing allows the part to be rigidly fixed to the chassis, frame, or inside the unit's junction box.
- Hermetic housing: Compound filling protects the internal structure from moisture, condensation, and vibration loads.
Compatibility and Applications:
- Pumping equipment: Surface, drainage, fecal, and borehole water pumps, pumping stations (Pedrollo, Aquatica, Vodoley, Optima, Marina-Speroni, AL-KO, etc.).
- Household appliances: Semi-automatic and automatic washing machines and dryers, centrifuges, kitchen hoods, waste disposers.
- Ventilation and climate systems: Industrial fans, air handling units, air conditioner drives.
- Power tools and machinery: Concrete mixers, woodworking machines, compressors, grinders, and other units with a single-phase asynchronous motor of appropriate power.
