MS/MD Series RoHS 60/70C Compliant *Intermittent AC Motor Starting * 6.3 mm Double amp tags (quick connect types) *VDE approved to EN 60252-2 application Basic design A range of aluminium electrolytic capacitors specifically designed for a.c. operation which help to start the motor by providing a leading current to the auxillary winding. The capacitor is not permanently connected to the winding of the motor and is switched off after starting, usually automatically. Capacitors for this application are designed for itermittent duty only, and capable of withstanding the a.c. voltage applied to the motor during starting. The capacitor construction comprise either double anode or O-style (double anode and floating cathode) windings and are housed in a moulded plastic case. The MD series is VDE approved to EN 60252-2 for the defined ratings.

The lower voltage rating relates to a duty cycle of 1.67% and the upper voltage rating relates to a duty cycle of 0.55%. Power Factor The tangent of the loss angle for motor start capacitors shall not exceed 0.1 and shall be calculated as follows: Tan = W = true watts VxI apparent watts Duty Cycle The standard rating is 1.67% or 1/60th full time and corresponds to a maximum duty of 20 starts, each of three seconds duration per hour. It is expressed as 3/1.67 (a 3 minute cycle with 1.67% duration during which the capacitor may be energised). If the same capacitor is to be used for a duty cycle of 60 starts per hour the cycle duration will be 1 minute. The operation time per cycle will then have to be reduced to 1.67% of 1 minute (i.e. 1 second). Alternative duty cycles are available on request. Presence of Run Capacitor When the motor is fitted with both starting and run capacitors, consideration should be given to fitting of the appropriate discharge resistor to the starting capacitor. This is to protect the run capacitor from damage through discharge of the starting capacitor. Container Form Cylindrical mouldings, meeting creepage and clearance distances, according to IEC 60335-1 and flammability ratings according to UL94-V1. BHC and Evox Rifa Electrolytic Capacitors 147 MS / MD Motor Starting Capacitors technical data Discharge Resistors A discharge resistor may be fitted to a motor start capacitor to prevent electrical overstress of the capacitor and or for safety reasons. In accordance with BS5267 and IEC 60252, the resistor value should be such that it reduces the voltage on the capacitor, from the line voltage to less than 50V within 60 secs.
