Helix part 0522036 is a capacitor assembly used in the motor start or run circuit of Helix LP sprayers. This component stores and releases electrical energy to provide the necessary torque for motor startup and efficient operation. Replace a failed, bulging, or leaking capacitor to restore proper motor function and prevent overheating or failure to start.

The 0522036 capacitor assembly is an electrical component used in the motor circuit of Helix LP sprayers. It provides the necessary phase shift and energy storage to start the motor and keep it running efficiently under load. This assembly includes the capacitor and any associated mounting hardware or wiring for a complete replacement.
Over time, capacitors can degrade due to heat, age, or electrical stress. A failing capacitor may cause the motor to hum without starting, run slowly, overheat, or trip breakers. Replacing a worn or failed capacitor with this genuine Helix assembly restores proper motor operation and prevents damage to other electrical components.
| Motor starting | Provides initial torque to start the motor |
|---|---|
| Running efficiency | Improves power factor and motor performance during operation |
| Energy storage | Stores and releases electrical energy as needed |
| Motor won't start | Humming sound but no rotation |
|---|---|
| Slow / weak operation | Motor runs below normal speed |
| Bulging / leaking | Visible deformation or electrolyte leakage |
| Overheating motor | Motor runs hot; capacitor may be failing |
Part 0522036 is specifically designed for the Helix LP sprayer. Always verify fitment and electrical specifications (capacitance and voltage rating) by consulting your machine's parts manual.

When replacing the capacitor, inspect these associated components to ensure complete system reliability.
A failing capacitor can stress the motor; check motor windings and bearings.
If present, verify that the start relay is functioning correctly.
Check for loose, corroded, or damaged wires at the capacitor terminals.
