Motor Run Capacitors :
These capacitors are designed specifically for motor run applications where the capacitors are used with permanent split capacitor type motors. To be used on either 50 Hz or 60 Hz systems. Not to be used at higher frequencies or in applications where higher frequency harmonics are present.
General Electric first introduced ECM technology to the residential HVAC industry in 1987. This technology is predominately used in indoor blower motor and outdoor fan motor applications, as well as some induced draft motor applications. These innovative motors changed the HVAC industry by providing unmatched efficiency as well as comfort options not possible with PSC induction motors.
Regal Beloit acquired General Electric’s Commercial and HVAC Motors and Capacitors business in 2004 with the right to use the GE brand through 2009. These divisions were named GE ECM by Regal Beloit, GE Commercial Motors by Regal Beloit and GE Capacitors by Regal Beloit. In 2009, Regal Beloit announced the rebranding of those GE branded business under the name Genteq.
Genteq is a division of Regal-Beloit Corporation, one of the largest manufacturers of electric motors in the world. Genteq is the rebranding of Regal Beloit’s GE ECM, GE Capacitors and GE Commercial Motors divisions, which occurred in 2009. Regal acquired General Electric’s Commercial and HVACR Motors and Capacitors businesses in 2004 from GE (General Electric).
General Electric developed an Electronically Commutated Motor (also called Electronically Controlled Motor), or ECM, technology for use in residential and light commercial heating and air conditioning systems in North America in the mid-1980s. The GE ECM motor was the first ultra-high efficiency motor for home heating and air conditioning systems, providing greater home comfort and energy efficiency.
Genteq develops and manufactures electronically commutated motors (ECM) and capacitors for residential and light commercial heating and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. The company is based in Fort Wayne, Indiana, with manufacturing facilities in Mexico. Genteq markets its products to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), as well as to HVAC contractors, distributors and technicians.

Contains Proprietary Dielektrol VI Oil
OEM Approved Replacement
UL 810 Approved
RoHS Compliant
10,000 AFC Protected
Evergreen CM
The Evergreen CM, or commercial building series VAV box replacement motor, can be integrated into a low voltage system controller to change speeds if needed for low or high occupancy and building non-occupancy set back.
Evergreen EM
Evergreen EM is designed to replace OEM ECM X13 motors quickly and easily. Evergreen EM is preprogrammed at the factory to provide the same comfort, lower utility bills and air quality as the OEM X13 ECM motor.
Evergreen IM
Evergreen IM is a high-efficiency ECM replacement motor that is designed to replace factory PSC blower motors in HVAC systems.
Evergreen OM
The Evergreen Outdoor Motor, also known as Evergreen OM, is designed for direct-drive fan propeller applications in residential systems up to 5-tons. Easily replaces 6 Pole (1,100 rpm rated) and 8 pole (850 rpm rated) shaded pole or PSC motors.
Evergreen PF
The Evergreen PF is a drop-in replacement for original pedestal fan motors, and is a cost-effective solution to replacing an entire fan assembly.
General Purpose AC and DC Capacitors
This capacitor series is designed specifically for applications such as AC filters where harmonic frequencies greater than 60Hz are common. Application Data is provided in the catalog, which gives the Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) for these units. This allows the user to calculate the losses for each design/application and to ensure that they are kept within the permissible limits.
HID Lighting Dry Capacitors
This capacitor series is designed specifically for the HID Lighting applications where the capacitor are used as part of the ballast circuit for mercury vapor, metal halide, and high-pressure sodium lamps. The units are designed to operate at up to 90ºC, which is the normal requirement for HID ballast capacitors. Due to advances in material technology and breakthroughs in proprietary capacitor manufacturing processes, selected ratings are now available for operation up to 100ºC for 60,000 hours.
Life-Line Capacitor Kit
The Life-Line Capacitor Kit is the all in one replacement kit for your single and dual run capacitor needs. In addition to many single capacitor ratings, this kit has been designed to cover 48 of the most common dual rating in both in 370VAC and 440VAC applications.
Motor Run AC Application Capacitors
This capacitor series is designed specifically for the motor run applications where the capacitors are use in conjunction with permanent split capacitor type motors. They may be used on either 50 or 60-Hertz systems but should not be used at higher frequencies or in applications where higher frequency harmonic are present. For those types of applications the General Purpose AC Capacitors should be used.
Motor Run Dry AC Capacitors
This capacitor series is designed and manufactured with metallized polypropylene film to provide self-healing properties and very low dielectric losses. These features, coupled with a flame retardant plastic case and encapsulate, make these capacitors ideally suited for permanent split phase motor applications as well as other applications where the user has determined that a dry metallized film capacitor with no internal protective device is suitable and acceptable.
Motor Start AC Capacitors
This capacitor series is designed specifically for the motor start applications where the single-phase AC motor provided with a centrifugal switch, or other device which cuts the capacitor out of the circuit once the full speed is reached. They may be used on either 50 or 60-Hertz systems but should not be used at higher frequencies or in applications where higher frequencies are present.
Screw Terminal Electrolytic Capacitors
This capacitor series type has high gain aluminum foil, better heat dissipation, and extended life characteristics. Electrolytic capacitors also offer more capacitance and ripple current capabilities. These capacitors are used in different applications such as welding equipment, Uninterrupted Power Supplies (UPS) systems, Light Train with patented construction for high vibration, etc.
Snap-In Electrolytic Capacitors

Electrolytic capacitors also offer more capacitance and ripple current capabilities. These capacitors are used in different applications such as welding equipment, Uninterrupted Power Supplies (UPS) systems, Light Train with patented construction for high vibration, etc.
