Italfarad Capacitors

Italfarad is an established capacitor brand known for quality, reliability, and performance across industrial and commercial electrical systems. The line covers motor run, motor start, and power factor correction capacitors designed for modern AC applications.

Both are completely dry (oil-free) capacitors for single-phase motors and general AC applications at 50/60 Hz. The RPC series uses insulated wire leads, while the RPN series uses quick-connect (fast-on) terminals for faster, tool-free wiring. The choice usually comes down to how your equipment is designed to connect.

Yes. The dry RPC and RPN designs use a biodegradable, non-toxic filling and are PCB-free. Motor run models such as the MFR series include an over-pressure safety device in an aluminum housing, and the power factor correction line is IMQ approved and uses self-healing metalized polypropylene that automatically repairs minor internal faults.

Dry Italfarad capacitors have a smaller, lighter case profile than oil-filled equivalents, contain no oil to leak, and use environmentally friendly materials. Their self-healing metalized film repairs the dielectric after minor faults, supporting long service life in power factor correction duty and single-phase asynchronous motors.

Motors and other magnetic equipment draw extra current that does no useful work. Power factor correction capacitors offset that wasted current, improving efficiency and lowering energy costs. Italfarad’s self-healing metalized polypropylene correction capacitors are IMQ approved and well suited to single-phase industrial and commercial installations aiming to lower losses and improve system performance.
