Quick overview

  • 189/227 MFD The capacitance range stamped on the can, at 125 volts AC.
  • Start duty, not run duty A start capacitor works only during the first moment of startup, and it is a different part from a run capacitor.
  • Sized 1-7/16 x 2-3/4 inches Measure the old can before ordering, since capacitors are as much about fitting the housing as matching the rating.
  • Century part 610807-007 The factory replacement capacitor.
  • Common failure point A motor that hums but will not spin up is usually the start capacitor rather than the motor itself.
  • Cheapest fix on the pad Replacing the capacitor costs a fraction of replacing the motor, so it is always worth ruling out first.

Product details

Century 610807-007 is a motor start capacitor rated 189/227 MFD at 125 volts AC, in a can measuring 1-7/16 inches by 2-3/4 inches.

What a start capacitor does

Single phase motors cannot start turning on their own. The start capacitor gives the motor the phase shift it needs to break away from a standstill, then drops out of the circuit almost immediately. Because it lives a hard and brief electrical life on every start, it is one of the first components on a pool pump motor to fail.

Before you order

Match two things: the rating printed on the old can and its physical size, since the replacement has to fit under the same cover. Kill the power at the breaker before opening the motor, and treat a removed capacitor as still charged until you have discharged it.

Questions and answers

What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.

What does 189/227 MFD mean?
It is the capacitance range of the unit, printed as a spread rather than a single number, which is normal for start capacitors.
Is this a start capacitor or a run capacitor?
Start. It is only in circuit for the instant the motor spins up. Run capacitors stay in circuit and are a different part.
What size is the can?
1-7/16 inches by 2-3/4 inches. Check yours against that before ordering, because the capacitor has to sit inside the existing cover.
My pump hums but will not start. Is this the part?
That symptom points at the start capacitor more often than anything else. Confirm the rating and can size on your old one match before ordering, and have the power off at the breaker before you open the motor.
