Description

10 µF Start Capacitor

A 10 µF motor start/run capacitor rated for 450V at 50/60Hz, used across a range of espresso machine and pump motors. Four-terminal design for flexible wiring.

SPECIFICATIONS

  • 10 µF, 450V, 50/60Hz
  • Four voltage terminals
  • Lead connector: 6.35 x 0.8 mm
  • Dimensions: 36 mm diameter x 58 mm length
  • Operating temperature: -25°C to +85°C
  • Compliant with EEC 93/68 and 92/31

COMPATIBILITY

  • Fits: motors and pumps specifying a 10 µF, 450V start/run capacitor with 6.35mm spade terminals

INSTALLATION

A moderate DIY task for anyone comfortable working around mains voltage — confirm power is disconnected and the old capacitor is discharged before handling.

PRO TIPS

  • Always discharge a capacitor before touching its terminals, even after unplugging the machine — a start capacitor can hold a genuinely unpleasant shock long after power is cut.
  • Match the µF rating exactly; don’t substitute a higher or lower microfarad value even if the physical size and terminals match, or you’ll get a motor that struggles to start or runs hot.
