Hi guys
Thanks for the explanation Imran.
Well, I hadn't heard an Electrolytic Capacitor referred to as an Ecap previously, but I was surprised to read further down the thread these start caps are polariszed (my bad).??
The point David Best makes is still valid.? Felder pitches themselves at being high end gear.? Starter cap issues do seem to pop up here.? It shouldn't be too difficult for Felder to establish what's going wrong even if they just relied on getting their own techs to gather the required field data.
Fortunately, my Felder gear is 3 phase but do the instructions say to hold the start button in until motor is up to full speed on single phase motors?? My understanding was to let go of the start button well before full speed was reached.
Cheers
David
