HySecurity MX001092, CAPACITOR, 216-259 MFD 250 V
The HySecurity MX001092 motor capacitor is a 216-259 MFD, 250V replacement capacitor for select HySecurity operators using dual-capacitor Baldor motors. HySecurity start-switch and capacitor service references group MX001092 with Baldor/Leeson motor capacitor service items, and current replacement listings describe MX001092 as the capacitor for dual-capacitor Baldor motors in 3/4 HP, 1 HP, and 2 HP applications. Capacitor selection is not based on appearance alone. The microfarad range, voltage rating, motor manufacturer, horsepower, wiring arrangement, and start-switch design must match the original motor system. This part is commonly ordered when a single-phase motor hums, starts weakly, trips, or requires capacitor replacement after testing, but the root cause should still be verified.

Technician Note
A capacitor can test weak even if it is not visibly swollen. Match the MFD range and voltage rating, and verify the start switch if the new capacitor does not solve the start problem.
Before Ordering Checklist
- Match the original capacitor label to 216-259 MFD and 250V
- Verify the motor is the compatible Baldor dual-capacitor style
- Confirm motor horsepower and operator parts diagram
- Inspect the start switch and wiring before installing a new capacitor
- Discharge and handle capacitors safely after power is disconnected
Professional Advisory
Motor capacitors can hold a charge and are part of high-voltage motor circuits. Have a qualified technician test and replace the capacitor when the diagnosis is uncertain.
Important Ordering Warnings
- Do not replace MX001092 with MX001093 unless the motor system specifically calls for it
- Do not select a capacitor by physical size only
- Wrong capacitor ratings can damage the motor or prevent proper starting
Product Questions and Answers
What rating is MX001092?
MX001092 is rated 216-259 MFD at 250V.
What motor type is it associated with?
It is commonly listed for dual-capacitor Baldor motors in 3/4 HP, 1 HP, and 2 HP HySecurity applications.
Is MX001092 the same as MX001093?
No. MX001093 has a different 645-774 MFD, 125V rating and is associated with older single-capacitor motor applications.
What symptoms can a failed capacitor cause?
A weak or failed capacitor can cause humming, hard starting, failure to start, stalling, or nuisance overload trips.
Should I replace the start switch too?
Only if testing or HySecurity service instructions indicate the start switch is worn, damaged, or part of the required repair.
