The Wacker Neuson Capacitor is a genuine OEM component designed for PS2 800 and PSA2 800 series submersible pumps. As a direct factory replacement, this capacitor delivers the exact electrical specification required to start and run the pump motor correctly across the PS2 800 and PSA2 800 model range, including 230 V configurations. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, it carries the same part number and rating as the original, so there is no guesswork on fitment or compatibility.
Key Features
- Correct Capacitance Rating: — Matched to OEM specification for the PS2 800 and PSA2 800 pump motors, ensuring proper starting torque and steady running current.
- Genuine OEM Part: — Manufactured by Wacker Neuson to the same standard as the original, with part number 5000176811 verified for direct swap-in replacement.
- Broad PS2 800 / PSA2 800 Coverage: — Fits multiple PS2 800 and PSA2 800 submersible pump configurations, including 230 V variants, under a single part number.
- Motor Protection: — A correctly rated capacitor prevents excessive inrush current and motor overheating; a failed or out-of-spec capacitor can prevent the pump from starting or cause motor burnout over time.
- Electrical Safety Compliance: — Using the OEM-rated capacitor keeps the pump's motor circuit within its designed electrical parameters, reducing risk of fault conditions in wet, submersed operating environments.
A capacitor in a submersible pump motor provides the phase shift needed to generate starting torque, allowing the motor to spin up reliably from a standing start. Once running, it also helps stabilize the motor's power factor and running efficiency. When a capacitor degrades or fails, the pump may hum but refuse to start, run at reduced power, or trip its thermal overload — leaving the site without dewatering capability until the component is replaced.
