Brivis CAPACITOR 1.5UF FLUE FAN HE20
SKU: 4543
$49.00
The Brivis Capacitor 1.5µF Flue Fan HE20 is a critical electrical component used in Brivis heating systems, specifically for the flue fan motor. Capacitors store and release electrical energy to help start and run the motor efficiently. If the capacitor fails, the flue fan may not operate correctly, leading to system malfunctions or shutdowns.
Capacitance: 1.5 microfarads (µF) – suitable for the flue fan motor in Brivis HE20 systems.
Voltage Rating: Typically rated for 240V or 440V (confirm the exact voltage rating for your specific model).
Function: Provides the necessary electrical boost to start and run the flue fan motor smoothly.
Durability: Designed to withstand high temperatures and continuous operation.
Capacitor Failure: A failed capacitor can prevent the flue fan from starting or cause it to run inefficiently.
Bulging or Leaking: Physical signs of damage, such as bulging or leaking, indicate the capacitor needs replacement.
Motor Humming: If the motor hums but doesn't start, the capacitor may be faulty.
System Shutdown: A failed capacitor can cause the heating system to shut down as a safety measure.
Turn Off Power: Disconnect the power supply to the heater to ensure safety.
Locate the Capacitor: The capacitor is typically located near the flue fan motor.
Discharge the Capacitor: Use an insulated screwdriver to short the terminals of the capacitor and discharge any stored energy.
Disconnect Wires: Carefully note the wiring configuration, then disconnect the wires from the old capacitor.
Remove the Old Capacitor: Unscrew or unclip the old capacitor from its mounting.
Install the New Capacitor: Secure the new 1.5µF capacitor in place and reconnect the wires as noted.
Test the System: Restore power and test the flue fan to ensure it starts and runs smoothly.
Always discharge the capacitor before handling it to avoid electrical shock.
Double-check the capacitance and voltage ratings of the replacement capacitor to ensure compatibility.
If you're unsure about replacing the capacitor yourself, consult a qualified HVAC technician for assistance.
Regularly inspect the capacitor for signs of damage, such as bulging, leaking, or corrosion.
Keep the area around the capacitor clean and free of debris.
Schedule annual servicing to ensure all electrical components are in good working condition.
Replacing a faulty capacitor promptly will help maintain the efficiency and reliability of your Brivis heating system.
