Domestic water pump sometimes "sticks" on starting - new capacitorneeded or what?
There's a pump which boosts pressure to the cold circuit (taps, bog
etc) in our house when a tap is turned on. About 1 time in 5, it won't spin, but just sit there humming. As I suspected, the electric meter spins pretty quickly when it's stuck like this! The main plate on top says: OSIP Electropompe Tpe VCB45/42 0.33Kw 220-240v 2.5a 8µF Vc:450 Hz:50 IS.CL:F Inside, there's a capacitor. It says: Italfarad - 05/90 (date of manufacture, I'd guess) RP-3 10040 µF: 10 ±5%b 450V~ DB HPFPU 400V~ DB HPFNT ------------------------------ 500V ± |
