Copeland 914-0008-79 Start Capacitor
The Copeland 914-0008-79 Start Capacitor is a high-duty electrolytic component engineered to provide the necessary starting torque for single-phase HVACR compressors. Offering a capacitance range of 270-324 Microfarads and rated for 165VAC, this round start capacitor is a standard OEM replacement for various Copeland condensing units and refrigeration systems. Its primary function is to provide a momentary electrical boost to the motor's start winding, allowing the compressor to overcome initial inertia and reach functional speed rapidly—typically within a 3-second start cycle.
Built with a moisture-resistant phenolic resin case, this motor start capacitor is designed for intermittent duty applications and can handle up to 20 starts per hour. It features standard 1/4-inch male quick-connect terminals for efficient field installation and is often utilized in systems requiring a 50/60 Hz power supply. By ensuring reliable torque during the startup phase, this component helps prevent motor stalling and reduces excessive heat buildup, protecting the overall integrity of the refrigeration system. This part is a direct compressor start capacitor replacement that meets or exceeds original manufacturer specifications for fit and electrical performance.
Key Benefits- Enhanced Starting Torque: Provides the critical electrical surge required for heavy-duty compressor motor startup.
- Durable Construction: Housed in a rugged, moisture-resistant case to withstand demanding mechanical room environments.
- OEM Compatibility: Specifically designed as a direct replacement Copeland part to ensure exact electrical matching.
- Fast Installation: Standard dual-blade terminals allow for a quick swap during service calls, minimizing system downtime.
- When should I replace this start capacitor? Replace the unit if you notice the compressor humming without starting, if the case shows signs of bulging/leaking, or if the capacitance measures outside the 270-324 MFD range.
- Does this include a bleed resistor? Some variations of the 914-0008-79 may require a resistor for safety; always verify if your specific application requires the transfer of the existing resistor.
- Is this compatible with 240V systems? While the motor may operate on higher voltages, this capacitor is specifically rated at 165VAC for the start circuit; always match your existing capacitor's voltage rating.
