MARS 11061 Start Capacitor

MARS 11061 Start Capacitor

The MARS 11061 is a professional-grade 72-88 MFD 330V round motor start capacitor designed for demanding HVACR applications. Engineered to provide high starting torque, this dry electrolytic capacitor ensures reliable ignition for compressors and motors in residential and commercial systems. It features a rugged, phenolic resin case that is hermetically sealed to offer superior protection against oil, moisture, and high-ambient heat—common stressors in outdoor condensing units. Rated for 50/60 Hz and capable of up to 20 starts per hour, the 11061 is a standard replacement for 72-88 microfarad 330Vac units across multiple brands. Its compact 1-13/16 inch diameter and 3-3/8 inch height allow for hassle-free installation in tight control boxes. For technicians, this AC motor starting component provides the consistent voltage boost required to overcome inertia, minimizing mechanical wear on system components during the initial startup phase while strictly adhering to UL and cUL standards for field safety and performance.

Key Benefits
  • Hermetically Sealed: The black Bakelite/Phenolic case permanently blocks out grease, dirt, and humidity to prevent internal dielectric failure.
  • High Torque Support: Delivers the necessary 72-88 MFD capacitance boost to facilitate smooth compressor starts under heavy load conditions.
  • Standardized Fit: Round start capacitor dimensions (1.81” x 3.38”) ensure compatibility with most standard HVAC motor mounting brackets.
  • Enhanced Durability: Engineered for a wide temperature range of -40°C to +65°C, ensuring stability in extreme rooftop or mechanical room environments.
Common Questions

Can I use a 330V capacitor to replace a 250V unit?
Yes, you can always use a higher voltage rating than the original, but never lower. The 330V rating of the MARS 11061 offers increased overhead for system safety.

Will this work if my old capacitor is 80 MFD?
Yes. This unit covers the range of 72-88 microfarads, making it the appropriate OEM-spec replacement for any fixed value within that window.

What happens if a start capacitor stays in the circuit too long?
Start capacitors are for intermittent duty only. Ensure your start relay is functioning correctly to prevent the capacitor from overheating or venting due to continuous power application.
