PIUSI CAPACITOR 25uF Ø36X70 250V(PANTH EX 120) Part R26405000

Description

Piusi Motor Capacitor 25µF (120V Panther EX)

Part is original to Piusi.

Product Code: R26405000

The Piusi R26405000 is a genuine OEM replacement start/run capacitor specifically engineered for the Panther EX 120V explosion-proof pump series. As a critical electrical component, the capacitor provides the necessary phase shift and torque required to start the motor under load and maintains the electrical efficiency of the pump during continuous operation.

Sized at Ø36x70mm, this capacitor is built to fit precisely within the specialized explosion-proof housing of the Panther EX, ensuring the unit remains compliant with safety standards while delivering consistent fueling performance.

Key Features & Benefits

• Optimized for 120V Panther EX: Specifically calibrated for the North American 120V / 60Hz Panther EX50 and related explosion-proof models. It ensures the motor reaches its operational RPM quickly, reducing heat buildup during the startup phase.
• Explosion-Proof Housing Compatibility: With a precise diameter of 36mm and a length of 70mm, this capacitor fits perfectly into the factory-designated internal compartment, preventing mechanical interference or “rattling” inside the motor shell.
• High-Capacitance Stability: Rated at 25µF (Microfarads), providing the exact electrical “kick” required to overcome the initial friction of the pump’s vanes and rotor, even in cold weather or when using high-viscosity fuels.
• Industrial Voltage Rating: Rated for 250V AC, providing a significant safety margin for 120V systems. This high voltage tolerance protects the capacitor from line surges and back-EMF (electromotive force) generated by the motor.
• Genuine Piusi Reliability: As an authentic Piusi R-Series spare part, the R26405000 is manufactured to withstand the thermal stress and high-cycle demands of industrial fueling environments.
• Essential for Motor Longevity: A failing capacitor forces the motor to draw excess current, which can lead to burnt-out windings. Replacing a weak capacitor with a fresh OEM unit is the most cost-effective way to protect your motor investment.

Technical Specifications

If your Panther EX pump “hums” but fails to spin, or if it requires a manual “nudge” to start, the capacitor has likely reached the end of its service life. Capacitors are wear-items that can degrade over time due to heat and electrical cycling. Replacing a failing unit with the Piusi R26405000 restores instant start-up reliability and ensures your explosion-proof pump remains a safe, high-performance asset on your fuel island.
