Pentair SuperFlo Capacitor
The Pentair SuperFlo is a 1.1 kW single-phase pool pump commonly found in pool & spa pumps setups. Here's the capacitor it most likely takes and how to confirm the exact value.

A Pentair SuperFlo pool pump typically takes a motor-run capacitor of around 30µF 370V (about 27–33µF) — treat that as a starting point, not a spec. Capacitor values vary even between identical-looking pumps, so read the rating printed on your existing capacitor (or the motor nameplate) and match the µF before ordering. Unsure, or the print worn off? Send us a photo and we'll confirm it.
The capacitor that matches that spec
One listing covers every terminal style — open it and choose your terminal (lug, flying lead, or stud) from the dropdown to match how your old capacitor's wires come out. Not sure? Any works electrically; the terminal is just the connection.
How to be sure you get the right one
- µF must match — the SuperFlo needs 30µF (about 27–33µF), within roughly ±5–10%. Too low and the motor won't start; too high and it runs hot.
- Voltage can go up, never down — a 370V (or higher) cap is correct here; a 450V part safely replaces a 370V or 440V one. Don't fit below 370V.
- Check the terminal + size — make sure the new cap physically fits the housing and the connections match (the SuperFlo typically uses a quick-connect / spade terminal).
- When in doubt, read your old cap — the printed µF and voltage on the part you're replacing is the final word.
