MARS 11082 Capacitor

The MARS 11082 is a high-performance motor start capacitor designed for demanding HVACR applications requiring a 710-850 MFD rating at 165V. Built to withstand the rigors of professional field use, this unit features a hermetically sealed black Bakelite case that provides a permanent barrier against oil, dirt, grease, and moisture. Its round, compact footprint (approximately 2.06" diameter by 4.38" height) makes it an ideal general replacement for tight service cabinets where larger capacitors simply won't fit. For the technician on-site, the phenolic terminals ensure secure, low-resistance connections during high-torque startup cycles. This HVAC capacitor is rated for intermittent duty at 50/60 Hz, delivering the precise electrolytic boost needed to bring compressors and motors up to speed quickly, reducing winding heat and extending component life. When you are performing HVAC system diagnostics or emergency repairs, the MARS 11082 offers the reliability required for AC and heat pump motor starting circuits.

• Engineered for Reliability: Encased in a moisture-resistant Bakelite housing to ensure consistent performance in harsh mechanical environments.
• Universal Compatibility: The 710-850 microfarad range and 165 VAC rating meet or exceed specs for numerous residential and commercial motor applications.
• Compact Design: Smallest physical dimensions in the industry for this power rating, facilitating easier installation in crowded electrical boxes.
• Dual Blade Terminals: Features standard 1/4 inch male quick-connect terminals for fast and efficient wiring.
• Professional Grade: UL and cUL recognized for safety and performance in professional HVAC repair.

• Can I use this to replace a capacitor with a slightly lower MFD? It is critical to match the MFD range specified by the motor manufacturer. Using a 710-850 MFD capacitor like the MARS 11082 ensures the motor receives the correct starting torque without damaging the windings.
• What does the 165V rating mean? This is the maximum voltage the capacitor can handle during the start cycle. You can always use a capacitor with a higher voltage rating than the original, but never lower.
• Why did my original start capacitor fail? Most failures are due to age, excessive heat, or a malfunctioning start relay that keeps the capacitor in the circuit too long. Always check the potential relay when replacing a start capacitor.
