Troubleshooting of Ceiling Fan Capacitor
Most ceiling fans use a type of motor known as a “permanent split capacitor motor”. These motors have two coils, a “start” and a “run” winding. A fan capacitor is connected in series with the start winding to insert a phase shift, but once the motor is up to speed it becomes an auxiliary winding. In order to reverse the motor, the capacitor is applied to the “run” winding which then beco...
there have two edition of capacitor history:
The first one:
The invention of the capacitor varies somewhat depending on who you ask. There are records that indicate a German scientist named Ewald Georg von Kleist invented the capacitor in November 1745. Several months later Pieter van Musschenbroek, a Dutch professor at the University of Leyden came up with a very similar device in the form of the Leyden jar, which is typically credited as th...
The air conditioner capacitor is an important electric device that can lead to serious problems for the system if not operating properly. It is one of the most frequent causes for malfunction of the motor, fan or the conditioner as a whole, and, for this reason, knowing how to replace it can save you a lot of money. The actual maintenance procedure is not very difficult to perform but requires careful attention and good manual skills. Here is h...

The fan capacitor works is not complicated. His working principle is the use of the capacitive reactance of the capacitor at a certain frequency AC signal generated to limit the maximum working current.
For example, in the 50Hz frequency conditions, a 1uF capacitor capacitance of about 3180 ohms. When both ends of the 220V AC voltage applied to the capacitor, the maximum current flowing through the capacitor is about 70mA. Although the current...
What is NON PCB 10000AFC P2 meaning on the capacitor mark?
NON-PCB intended for the pollution-free insulating oil, it can be used for the capacitor insulating paper, insulating paper layer is often used PCB."Polychlorinated biphenyls", polychlorinated biphenyls, a toxic substance, and so is generally not used. NON PCB, "Non" is French, the meaning is not, do not including.
AFC means automatic frequency control. Is the English abbreviation for...
The purpose of a start capacitor resistor is used to bleed off residual voltage in the capacitor after it has been disconnected from the circuit after motor start up. Not all start capacitors will use one, as there are other ways to accomplish this.
The important part is that if your original capacitor had one, you'll need to replace it on the new capacitor. Most replacement start capacitors will not include a resistor. You can check the condi...
If your air conditioner is not turning on, taking a long time to warm up or not running at full capacity, what you may need is a new ac capacitor. There are two kinds of air conditioning capacitors, and the first thing to know is which kind you need depending on what problem you are having.
1. Start Capacitors
Start capacitors are used during start up to help produce enough torque to bring the motor to full speed. Designed for momenta...
A single unit run capacitor is generally used in smaller air conditioner units. A single unit run capacitor will have two connections and will be hooked up to a single motor.
A dual run capacitor is essentially just two run capacitors in one. They have nothing else that makes them electrically special. A dual run capacitor supports two electric motors, such as in large air conditioner or heat pump units, with both a fan motor and a c...
