Aerovox’s line of AeroMet II (M Series) AC motor run
capacitors represent product which is on the leading
edge of motor run capacitor technology. This design
incorporates an insulating plastic case, rated UL94V-
, and a UL Recognized internal pressure interrupter,
which meets or exceeds the performance of traditional
metal case alternatives. The noncorrosive plastic case
eliminates the need for painted steel or aluminum cases
for outdoor applications. In addition, grounding is not
necessary with the plastic case.
Each capacitor is filled with Aerovox’s patented
Supernol dielectric fluid. This fluid is a made from a
combination of environmentally safe and compatible
ingredients that enhance capacitor performance. The
fluid suppresses the degrading effects of corona at the
edge of the metallized film and improves heat transfer,
resulting in superior capacitance stability and long-
term reliability.
