There are usually 2 capacitors inside a pump control box a start capacitor and a run capacitor. Technicians should test a well pump s control box before pulling a nonworking pump from the well. Similar to a phone s battery after charging so many times.

Zoeller steel control box. Once the water pressure reaches the switch s high pressure limit the switch opens turning off the electricity. Control box capacitors play an integral role in your submersible well pump system. 105 126 uf mfd capacitor 220 250vac motor start capacitor replacement for franklin 1hp 1 5hp and 2hp well pump control box pack of 2 4 7 out of 5 stars 8 12 98 12.

Star water systems steel pressure gauge. They are responsible for starting up or running the motor. Over time the well pump capacitors wear out lose capacitance and need replacing. Continued use may result in the capacitor blowing out potentially causing damage to your motor or control box.
