38230 Essex Group Run Capacitor, 30 MFD, 370v, 1-3/4"x2-7/8" 5VR0303
The Essex Group 5VR0303 run capacitor is a critical component in maintaining the efficient operation of pool pumps. Rated at 30 MFD and 370 volts, it is designed to stabilize the electrical current that motors require to run smoothly.
Pool pump Runcapacitors like this one store energy, then release it to the motor when demand spikes, such as on startup or when there is a heavy load on the pump. This action helps prevent motor overheating and extends the life of your pool equipment by ensuring it runs more efficiently.
Not only does it improve the energy efficiency of pool pumps, but it also supports consistent motor speed. It reduces electric consumption, leading to cost savings on your energy bills.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the lifespan of a 5VR0303 run capacitor?
Typically, run capacitors can last 5 to 15 years, depending on usage and environmental conditions. Regular maintenance and proper handling can extend this lifespan, ensuring your pool pump operates efficiently for years.
How is this run capacitor compatible with my pool pump?
Check the voltage and capacitance requirements of your pool pump, which should match the capacitor's 370v and 30 MFD specifications. Compatibility with the motor's requirements ensures optimal performance.
Can I install the 5VR0303 pool pump run capacitor myself?
While installation is hassle-free, consulting with or hiring a professional is recommended to ensure it is installed correctly and safely, especially if you are unfamiliar with electrical components.
What are the signs that I need to replace my pool pump capacitor?
Common signs include the pool pump humming but not starting or if it shuts off unexpectedly after starting. These symptoms suggest that the capacitor may no longer be functioning effectively.
