Technical Specifications

What's in the Box

• One (1) Bonaire Vulcan Quasar Furnace Fan Capacitor 1.0uF (CT4789922SP)

Using It on the Job

1. Isolate Power: Always ensure the furnace's main power supply is completely switched off at the circuit breaker and locked out before starting any work. Verify with a multimeter.
2. Locate Capacitor: Find the existing fan capacitor, usually near the fan motor or control board.
3. Discharge Safely: Use an insulated screwdriver or a purpose-built capacitor discharge tool to safely discharge the old capacitor before handling. Even small capacitors can hold a dangerous charge.
4. Disconnect & Replace: Note wiring connections, then carefully disconnect the old capacitor. Connect the new 1.0uF Bonaire capacitor, ensuring all terminals are secure.
5. Re-secure & Test: Mount the new capacitor firmly. Restore power and test the fan operation, ensuring it starts smoothly and runs as expected.
6. Post-Service Check: Double-check all connections and confirm the furnace is operating correctly before leaving the site.

Limitations & Safety Notes

• Always isolate and lock out power to the appliance before commencing any electrical work.
• Capacitors can store electrical charges even after power is off; always discharge them safely before handling.
• Only use this capacitor for Bonaire Vulcan Quasar furnaces requiring a 1.0uF replacement (Bonaire PN 4789922SP).
• Installation should only be performed by a qualified technician or competent individual with appropriate electrical safety knowledge.
• Follow Australian electrical safety standards and Safe Work guidance.

Tradie Pro Tip: Before you even think about touching a capacitor, grab your multimeter and double-check it's fully discharged. Those little jolts are no fun, especially when you're in a tight spot on a hot Australian roof. Safety first, every time.

Pair With

For any electrical work involving capacitors, you'll want a good quality multimeter for testing and discharge, along with general electrical hand tools. Consider stocking up on other Bonaire Heating spare parts like control boards or fan motors to be prepared for common furnace breakdowns.
