Capacitor KEMOT URZ3132 15µF 450V for single-phase motors

KEMOT URZ3132 15µF 450V is a motor run capacitor engineered for single-phase electric motors. It provides the constant capacitance required for phase shift and power factor correction during motor start-up and continuous operation. The capacitor is intended for use in fans, pumps and compressors where a 15µF capacitance at a 450V AC rating is specified and where a standard motor capacitor form factor is required for replacement or repair.

Advantages

This 15µF 450V motor run capacitor is designed to deliver steady capacitance under continuous AC operation, helping to maintain motor torque and running efficiency. Its construction is suitable for permanent connection in single-phase motor circuits, offering electrical stability and compatibility with common motor housings. The product meets typical performance expectations for run capacitors used in HVAC, water pumping and compressor applications.

Suitable for

• Replacement of worn or failed run capacitors in single-phase fan motors
• Use in pump motors requiring 15µF capacitance for proper operation
• Compressor motors that need power factor compensation and phase shift
• Repair projects and routine maintenance of household and light commercial motors

Key specifications

• Capacitance: 15 microfarads (µF)
• Rated voltage: 450 V AC
• Type: motor run capacitor for single-phase motors
• Application: continuous duty in fan, pump and compressor motors
• Form factor: standard cylindrical motor capacitor shape for common mounting

How to use

Before installation, disconnect power and verify motor specifications to confirm a 15µF, 450V capacitor is appropriate. Observe polarity where applicable and follow the motor manufacturer’s wiring diagram when connecting the capacitor between the run and start or auxiliary windings as required. Secure the capacitor in the existing bracket or mounting location and ensure terminal connections are tightened. After installation, restore power and test motor operation for correct starting, running torque and reduced noise or vibration where applicable.

Usage recommendations

Use this capacitor only in compatible single-phase motor circuits and within its rated voltage and capacitance. Replace capacitors with same capacitance and equal or higher AC voltage rating. Dispose of defective capacitors according to local regulations and verify that replacement is performed by qualified personnel when working with mains voltages.
