Bianco AHS05A Capacitor

The Bianco AHS05A is a 0.5 kW single-phase submersible auto pump (HS series) commonly found in well & domestic pumps setups. Its motor runs on a 15µF 450V motor-run capacitor in a CBB60-style can — here's the exact replacement and how to confirm it.

The Bianco AHS05A submersible auto pump (HS series) uses a 15µF 450V motor-run capacitor (CBB60-style) — it's the part that helps the single-phase motor start and keep running smoothly. We source this value from our pump-spares records. Match the replacement to 15µF (about 13.5–16.5µF) at 450V or higher; the checklist below covers how to confirm it against your own capacitor.

How to be sure you get the right one

  • µF must matchthe AHS05A needs 15µF (about 13.5–16.5µF), within roughly ±5–10%. Too low and the motor won't start; too high and it runs hot.
  • Voltage can go up, never downa 450V (or higher) cap is correct here; a 450V part safely replaces a 370V or 440V one. Don't fit below 450V.
  • Check the terminal + sizemake sure the new cap physically fits the housing and the connections match (or use a spade adapter).
  • When in doubt, read your old capthe printed µF and voltage on the part you're replacing is the final word.

Common questions — Bianco AHS05A capacitor

What capacitor does the Bianco AHS05A use?

A 15µF 450V motor-run capacitor (CBB60-style). Always confirm against the rating printed on your existing capacitor before ordering.

Can I fit a higher-voltage capacitor in the Bianco AHS05A?

Yes — voltage can be equal or higher, never lower. A capacitor rated 450V or above is fine (450V is the usual choice), as long as the µF still matches (15µF).
