WattsNext Webinar - Start Me Up – Using Peak Nano HDF-based Capacitors for Motor Start Applications

Starter capacitors for single-phase motors face extreme conditions — high in-rush currents, temperature stress, repeated start-stop cycles, and sometimes even explosive atmospheres. Traditional BOPP films often fail under these demands, taking critical systems like air conditioning and water wells offline. Peak Nano's High-Dissipation Factor (HDF) dielectric films offer a more reliable alternative, delivering longer run-times, higher temperature tolerance, and smaller capacitor sizes.

Key Takeaways

• BOPP films struggle in harsh motor starter environments, leading to critical system failures

• Peak Nano HDF films outperform BOPP in temperature tolerance, run-time, and size
  
  
• HDF films are applicable to real-world starter capacitor applications across multiple industries
