Motor start capacitor for single-phase motors
The Packard PTMJ88R is a motor start capacitor rated 88-108 MFD for 220-250V AC operation. It includes an internal resistor and suits replacement in compatible single-phase motor circuits. The round case measures 3 3/8 in height by 1 13/16 in diameter. Buyers needing a different microfarad range or voltage rating should select another part.
Verify voltage and microfarad match before ordering
Confirm the motor nameplate specifies a start capacitor within 220-250V AC and 88-108 MFD. Check that the existing capacitor uses a round case with similar mounting dimensions. Ensure the circuit requires a built-in discharge resistor. This item is restricted from sale in certain states; verify local regulations before purchase.
Designed for brief start duty not continuous run
The capacitor energises only during motor start-up and disconnects once the motor reaches operating speed. It is not rated for continuous run duty and will overheat if left in circuit. Under sustained load the internal resistor manages discharge between starts. Units subjected to rapid cycling beyond design limits will experience reduced service life.

Questions about this item
What comes in the box and do I need to buy a mounting bracket or wiring harness separately?
The package contains the single Packard PTMJ88R motor start capacitor with an internal bleed resistor. No bracket, harness or additional components are included.
How do I decide between the 88 MFD and 108 MFD ratings shown on the label?
The 88-108 MFD marking indicates one capacitor whose capacitance falls within that tolerance range; you do not choose between two separate values. Match the microfarad rating printed on the original motor nameplate.
What does the 220-250 V AC rating mean when the capacitor is installed in a motor circuit?
It is the maximum continuous RMS voltage the capacitor can withstand across its terminals during start-up; the supply voltage must not exceed 250 V AC.
