FFF CompatibilityThe terminals use the same double fast-on (6.3 mm x 0.8 mm) connection mechanism and layout.The diameter (45 mm) and M8 mounting stud are identical, but the height is shorter (98 mm vs 133 mm).Provides identical 30 µF capacitance, ±5% tolerance, 470 VAC rating, and 10,000 hours Class B lifetime.Employs the same double fast-on terminals and standard M8 mounting stud configuration.Constructed with a cylindrical plastic can instead of aluminum, with a shorter body height (95 mm vs 133 mm).Rated at 30 µF and 470 VAC, but lacks the aluminum-can overpressure safety device (Safety Class S2) found on the C878 series.
AI Summary

C878AF35300AA1J by KEMET: Motor Start, Motor Run Capacitors (AC).

A direct sibling variant from the same KEMET C878 series that offers identical electrical ratings and lifetime performance, but in a more compact package height of 98 mm.

  • Identical electrical performance and lifetime rating (Class B 10,000 hours @ 470 VAC)
  • Direct series sibling from the same manufacturer
  • Double fast-on terminals match the original exactly
  • Shorter body length (98 mm vs 133 mm) may require adjusting mounting brackets if height-constrained.

An alternative from KEMET's C27 series that matches the primary electrical ratings, but utilizes a cylindrical plastic housing instead of the original's aluminum can.

  • Maintains the same 470 VAC voltage rating as the original
  • Double fast-on terminals and M8 mounting stud match the original layout
  • Plastic body instead of aluminum can
  • Lacks the Safety Class S2 overpressure safety device of the C878 series

You searched one part. Parter watches your whole BOM.

  1. All your BOM, at once

    Parter maps every line to live stock, lead time, lifecycle and compliance data across the entire market — not part by part.

  2. Hear about problems before they hit production

    Allocation, EOL and last-time-buy notices surface the moment they appear, not when your buyer's PO bounces.

  3. Qualified replacements in minutes, not days

    Every at-risk line gets form-fit-function matches like the ones above — deltas flagged, evidence attached. Review, push to your BOM, and Parter starts watching the new part too.
