## Description

The 125MS22ACMA1STD is a motor start aluminum electrolytic capacitor from KEMET's MS/A902 series, designed specifically for single-phase AC motor starting applications. This component delivers 125 µF nominal capacitance with an asymmetric tolerance of -0%/+25%, rated for 220 VAC operation. The aluminum electrolytic construction features a cylindrical aluminum can measuring 38 mm diameter (±0.5 mm) with a maximum length of 116 mm, terminated with quick-connect leads for reliable electrical interface. The capacitor operates across a temperature range of -20°C to +60°C, with a rated temperature of 60°C and a specified service life of 500 hours under rated conditions.

Motor start capacitors of this type provide the necessary phase shift and high starting torque for induction motors in HVAC systems, compressor motors, pump motors, and other fractional to multi-horsepower single-phase AC motor applications. The MS series electrolytic dielectric system delivers high capacitance density required for intermittent-duty starting circuits, where the capacitor is typically switched out of the circuit by a centrifugal switch or relay once the motor reaches approximately 75% of synchronous speed. The -0%/+25% tolerance specification ensures adequate starting torque while preventing excessive current draw, and the bulk bag packaging suits high-volume manufacturing environments. This component is RoHS compliant and halogen-free, aligning with contemporary environmental compliance requirements for industrial equipment.
