The Wacker Neuson Capacitor is a genuine OEM component designed for the PS and PSA series submersible pumps, including the PS2 500, PSA2 500, PST2 400, PSTF2 400, PSR1 500, and PSG2 500 models. As a direct factory replacement, this capacitor restores correct motor starting and running performance to specifications Wacker Neuson engineers intended. Fitment covers a broad range of PS-family submersible pump configurations, making it a versatile stocking part for service fleets and rental operations. Confirm your model number against the verified fitment list before ordering to ensure an exact match.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Electrical Specification — Manufactured to the exact capacitance and voltage rating required by Wacker Neuson PS-series pump motors, ensuring the motor receives the correct phase shift for reliable starting.
- Drop-In Motor Replacement — Designed to connect directly to the existing motor wiring harness in your submersible pump housing with no wiring modifications.
- Broad PS-Family Fitment — Compatible with PS2 500, PSA2 500, PST2 400, PSTF2 400, PSR1 500, and PSG2 500 submersible pump models, covering multiple voltage configurations including 110 V variants.
- Restores Full Pump Output — A failed or degraded capacitor causes hard starts, reduced motor torque, and eventual motor burnout; replacing it promptly brings the pump back to full dewatering performance.
- Electrical Safety Compliance — Using the correct OEM-rated capacitor prevents over-current conditions in the motor windings that can result from mismatched aftermarket substitutes in submersible electrical environments.
A capacitor in a submersible pump motor provides the phase displacement needed to start and run a single-phase induction motor. It stores an electrical charge that creates the rotating magnetic field the motor relies on to generate torque and reach operating speed. When a capacitor degrades or fails, the motor struggles to start, runs hot, draws excessive current, or stops altogether — leaving the pump unable to move water. Replacing a worn capacitor with the correct OEM part restores proper motor function and protects the windings from the heat damage that a weak capacitor causes over time.
