MOTOR START AC ELECTROLYTIC
MSC SERIES
The MSC Series is a range of AC electrolytic capacitors.
These capacitors are most often used to provide the
torque necessary to start AC motors and in other inter-
mittent AC applications.
FEATURES:
• Two .25” Quick Connect terminals
• Round moisture and oil resistant plastic case
• 110VAC to 330VAC
• Quick disconnect terminals
• Recessed terminals
• Long life and high reliability

Capacitance Range:
H
110/125 Volts – 21µF to 1200µF
220/250 Volts – 21µF to 324µF
330 Volts – 21µF to 259µF
PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATIONS
Operating Temperature Range: –40°C to +65°C
Power Factor: 10% Max.; 12% ≤30µF
Operating Frequency: 47 – 60H_Z
MOUNTING
Vertical mounting of the capacitor with the terminals
up is recommended. However, horizontal mounting is
acceptable providing the vent is located in the up posi-
tion. Vertical mounting with the terminals down is not
recommended because the capacitor life may be re-
duced and the operation of the pressure relief vent im-
paired.
CLEANING
Solvent residues on the capacitors after cleaning may
penetrate the seal and cause internal corrosion result-
ing in shortened life. Alcohol or water detergent clean-
ing is not usually harmful but halogenated cleaning
solvents are not recommended and should be
avoided.
SAFETY
Because the watt–second value of these capacitors is
high, precautions should be taken during the testing
of these devices.
Discharge resistors should be specified when there is
a possibility of a residual charge left on the capacitor
or to protect contacts. Mis–application, such as ex-
ceeding design limits or applying continuous AC volt-
age, may result in destruction or explosion of capaci-
tors.
