Lead is the wire-lead group inside our CBB61 Square Motor Capacitor range, the CBB61 fan capacitor line from Cixi Riyi. Every model listed here is an explosion-proof S3 lead capacitor.
Models Listed:
• CBB61 11+3uF 420&500V S3: a dual-capacitance model built as a metallized polypropylene film capacitor.
• CBB61 7.4+3.6uF 420V S3: a dual model with a 420V rating.
• CBB61 12uF 250V S3: the lowest voltage rating in this group.
• CBB61 6uF 450V S3 and CBB61 7.4uF 420V S3: single-capacitance models.
Key Features:
• Explosion-proof S3 construction on all five models.
• Wire leads for direct connection into the motor wiring.
• Square-style CBB61 body.
Typical Applications:
• Fan motors that specify a lead-type capacitor.
• Other AC motor applications that need explosion-proof protection.
Browse Also: CBB61 Insert for terminal-type models. Custom values are developed from your drawings or samples.











Cixi Riyi Capacitor Factory builds the lead group of the CBB61 square motor capacitor range: metallized polypropylene film capacitors with a sealed square body, wire leads for direct motor wiring, and S3 explosion-proof construction on every model. The line is aimed at fan, blower, range hood, air-conditioning and small single-phase motor builds where the nameplate calls for a leaded run or dual run capacitor.
Our works cover 25,000 m² of plant in Cixi, Zhejiang, on the south bank of Hangzhou Bay Bridge. We operate ISO9001 and ISO14001 management systems, and the products carry CQC, TUV, VDE, IMQ, UL and CE certificates.

11+3 µF 420&500 V S3 — dual-section package with a 500 V section for higher-voltage fan and blower motors.
Both sections run in one sealed case, so the motor keeps a start/run pair on a single footprint.
7.4+3.6 µF 420 V S3 — square-body explosion-proof dual run capacitor with wire leads for motors needing two capacitance values.
Common where the main winding and auxiliary winding have clearly different ratings.
12 µF 250 V S3 — the lowest voltage rating in this lead group, a fully sealed epoxy-resin part for low-voltage AC motor circuits.
Suited to capacitor-run duty where the winding design fixes the working voltage.
6 µF 450 V S3 and 7.4 µF 420 V S3 — single-section run capacitors, including a non-standard 7.4 µF/420 V value for existing nameplates.
Useful when a production line must keep an older rating rather than redesign the motor.
All five listed models share the same construction logic: a square CBB61 body, an explosion-proof S3 case, and flying leads that terminate directly in the motor junction box. Models with different values are developed from customer drawings or samples, which is where most sourcing work starts. Our AC Cbb61 Wire Lead Motor Capacitor Suppliers line is the lead-type branch of the CBB61 family; terminal-type versions sit in the AC Cbb61 Insert Type Square Capacitor Suppliers group.
CAPACITANCE (µF)
Sets the phase shift between main and auxiliary winding current. A value below the motor design reduces starting torque; a value above it raises winding current and case temperature.
RATED VOLTAGE (V AC)
Must cover the highest steady voltage the capacitor sees, not the nominal supply. A 450 V part on a 250 V circuit adds margin; the reverse does not.
DUAL VALUES (A+B)
Two windings in one case. Section order, tolerance and lead identification must match the motor schematic, because a swapped section changes the running current.
S3 EXPLOSION-PROOF CASE
A sealed enclosure that contains internal breakdown instead of venting it. It also protects the film element against moisture and dust in appliance and outdoor-fan duty.
Winding, metallizing and epoxy sealing determine how tightly a delivered batch sits around its nominal value. The chart shows the relative spread we hold between nominal, minimum and maximum limits inside a typical run capacitor tolerance window — a narrower band means less motor-to-motor variation on the line.

Film and winding
Metallized polypropylene film, precision slitting and automatic winding. We run 11 automatic slitting machines and 15 imported automatic winding machines, with daily output around 60,000 pieces.
Sealing
Vacuum epoxy or resin fill closes the square body against moisture ingress, which is the main driver of capacitance drift in humid fan and pump duty. The S3 explosion-proof case contains internal failure rather than releasing it.
Lead termination
Lead gauge, insulation colour and stripped length are set to the motor harness. Colour-coded leads identify dual sections so the main and auxiliary windings cannot be crossed on the assembly line.
Routine testing
Capacitance, dissipation factor, insulation resistance and withstand voltage checks on finished units, plus seal and appearance inspection before packing. A technical team of 21 specialists and 3 engineers supports sample builds and change control.
Four variables usually decide which lead capacitor a motor takes. The radar profile shows the emphasis we place on each when reviewing a drawing, from 1 (minor) to 5 (dominant).
Relative weighting used when reviewing a motor drawing for lead-type CBB61 selection.
We hold ISO9001 quality management and ISO14001 environmental management system certification, and product certificates including CQC, TUV, VDE, IMQ, UL and CE. Where a project needs documented evidence, we align the certificate set and test records with the model and marking being supplied.
Where motor programmes sit outside the standard CBB61 lead list, we develop the part from your drawing or sample rather than force a catalogue value onto the application. Related families in our factory include the CBB60 AC Motor Run And Start Capacitor Manufacturers range for larger motor-run duty and the AC CBB65 Explosion-Proof Capacitor Manufacturers range for compressor and air-conditioning circuits.
