The VLC MKA Motor Run Capacitor (6μf, 450 Vac) is a film-type capacitor designed for continuous-duty service in standard single-phase AC motor applications. MKA 450 capacitors stay in circuit during normal running to maintain the phase shift that keeps the motor running smoothly and efficiently.

Rated to safety class S0 and certified to EN60252 and CE, this capacitor has a climate class of −25°C to +85°C. Note: the capacitance value shown in the product photo may differ from the 6μf value of this specific item.
