Bonaire Capacitor With Leads 25MFD

This Bonaire 25MFD capacitor with leads is a direct replacement part designed to get your evaporative cooler's fan or pump motor firing up correctly. It's a critical component for reliable startup, especially as these units work hard through Australian summers.

When an evaporative cooler starts struggling to spin up, or hums without fully engaging, a failing capacitor is often the culprit. Swapping out a dead capacitor quickly means your customers aren't stuck without cooling for long.

Best for: HVAC techs, evaporative cooler service teams, and DIY owners maintaining Bonaire cooling units.

Using It on the Job

1. Always isolate power to the evaporative cooler at the main switchboard and apply a lockout tag.
2. Locate the existing capacitor, typically near the motor compartment.
3. Discharge the old capacitor using a screwdriver with an insulated handle across its terminals, if needed, though leads usually mean it's self-discharging.
4. Carefully disconnect the leads from the old capacitor, noting their positions.
5. Connect the new Bonaire 25MFD capacitor, ensuring leads match the original connections.
6. Secure the new capacitor in place, restore power, and test the cooler's operation.

Limitations & Safety Notes

• Requires electrical competency; ensure you are qualified or consult a licensed electrician for installation.
• Only for use with Bonaire evaporative coolers that specify a 25MFD run capacitor.
• Capacitors can store a charge even after power is off; always discharge them safely before handling.
• Always follow local electrical safety regulations and Safe Work Australia guidelines.

Tradie Pro Tip

"Before you pull the old cap out, grab your phone and snap a photo of the wiring. Makes hooking up the new one a no-brainer, especially when you're sweating it out on a hot roof."
