ITALFARAD Motor Capacitors

For use in running single-phase asynchronous motors and in all general A.C. applications at 50/60Hz, ITALFARAD proposes a range of self-healing capacitors, manufactured using a self-extinguishing plastic case filled with resin. This range gives very good electrical reliability together with high mechanical resistance to shock and vibration.

VDE Approvals

ITALFARAD motor capacitors have VDE approvals in accordance with European Standard EN 60252-1.

Life Rating of Operating Classes

• Class D = 1000 hours
• Class C = 3000 hours
• Class B = 10000 hours
• Class A = 30000 hours

Temperature Ratings

25 = minimum working temperature (-25°C), 085 = maximum working temperature (85°C)

Humidity Test Duration

21 = duration (days) of the humidity test.

Capacitor Types

ITALFARAD motor capacitors are divided in two groups (according to the terminations):

• RPN = capacitors with fast-on terminals
• RPC = capacitors with double insulated cable or with two single conductor leads.

Manufacturer's Disclaimer

The manufacturer reserves the right to modify data and sizes without previous notice.
