A CBB60 capacitor is a relatively small component that is an essential part in many machines. It supports starting and running when loaded a motor such as in air conditioners, washing machines, and fans. You could think of it as a little assistant that helps these machines out.
Whenever you are selecting a cbb60 capacitor, you’re required to consider three primary factors: voltage, frequency of your equipment, and the capacitance. That may sound confusing but they are not. The voltage rating is how much "pressure" the capacitor can take before failing. The number after the Hertz rating indicates how many times the electrical current changes direction each second. The capacitance value is the one which indicates the amount of electrical energy that can be stored in the capacitor.
CBB60 capacitors can be found in a wide array of devices, ranging from washing machines to refrigerators and vacuum cleaners. They are particularly useful in devices with electric motors, which require extra power when starting. And now you know a little more about who to thank the next time you crank up the air conditioning on a hot day.
The voltage is a critical rating. If you use a CBB60 capacitor whose voltage rating is too low, it can fail, and it may catch fire. The fit rating also counts for something. Your appliance can stop working if you use the wrong frequency. Finally, the capacitance rating matters because it influences how good your appliance will work.
If you have to replace a cbb60 capacitors, you want to make sure the appliance is unplugged first. Then, locate the old capacitor (it resembles a small cylinder) and carefully remove it, being sure to note which wire goes where. Then, screw in the new capacitor, connecting the wires in the same way and flipping the screwdriver bit, if necessary, to get around the motor housing. Finally, plug the appliance in again and check it. And if that doesn’t do the trick, you might have to phone for professional assistance.
