Copeland 914-0006-11 Start Capacitor

The Copeland 914-0006-11 is a high-torque 145-174 MFD start capacitor designed specifically for single-phase refrigeration and air conditioning compressors. Rated for 330Vac, this round electrolytic component is essential for providing the necessary phase shift to initiate motor starting torque in demanding HVACR applications. High-quality OEM Copeland capacitors like the 914-0006-11 are engineered to meet EIA-463-B standards, ensuring they handle the rapid cycling typical of commercial refrigeration. This motor start capacitor features a factory-installed bleed resistor across the terminals, which prevents residual voltage buildup and protects relay contacts from arcing or pitting during short-cycle conditions. For any technician troubleshooting a stalled compressor or slow-start scenario, verifying the microfarad rating and voltage capacity is critical. This unit’s robust construction ensures reliable performance in high-ambient environments where standard components might fail.

• Optimized Starting Torque: Provides the 145-174 microfarad boost required for heavy-duty compressor motor starting.
• Arc Protection: Integrated bleed resistor depletes stored charge to extend the service life of potential relays and contactors.
• NEMA/EIA Compliance: Built to meet Type 1 heavy-duty requirements for industrial and residential systems.
• Universal Compatibility: Standard round form factor fits most existing mounting brackets and terminal configurations.

• Can I use this for both 240V and 330V systems? Yes, the 330Vac rating is the maximum operational voltage; it is safe for use in lower voltage applications like 208V or 240V.
• Why does this capacitor include a resistor? The bleed resistor is vital for discharging the capacitor between cycles, preventing damage to the starting relay.
• Will this work with other compressor brands? While designed for Copeland compressors, it is compatible with any motor requiring a 145-174 MFD start capacitor rated up to 330V.
