AC Capacitors in Bahrain

An AC run capacitor gives the compressor and fan motors the phase shift they need to run smoothly. Its microfarad (µF) rating and voltage must match the original, because a wrong value can overheat the motor or compressor. A capacitor that is swollen, leaking or burnt, or a unit that hums but does not start, usually points to a failed capacitor.

Always switch off the power and discharge a capacitor before touching it. A dual capacitor lists two µF values, for example 35+5 µF, one for the compressor and one for the fan, so use the same pairing as the old one.

The dual run capacitors we list are CBB65 types rated 450VAC, each with its µF pairing in the product name. Look at the terminal markings on the old capacitor, usually Herm for the compressor and Fan for the fan motor, before you fit the new one so the connections go back exactly as they were.

Our catalogue currently lists 7 AC run capacitors from SAMREF. Each product has its own page with the model number and the specifications we hold for it. Stock changes, so message us the product code on WhatsApp to confirm availability and price.

Frequently asked questions

How do I choose the right AC capacitor?

Use the µF rating and voltage printed on the old capacitor. If it is a dual capacitor, match both values, such as 35+5 µF.

Can I use a capacitor with a different µF rating?

Use the rating printed on the original. A different value can overheat the motor or compressor and shorten its life.

How can I tell the capacitor has failed?

A swollen, leaking or burnt case is a clear sign, and so is a compressor or fan motor that hums but does not start. Switch off the power and discharge the capacitor before you check it.
