Value Oval Run Capacitor Motors

Overview

The VALUE COLLECTION 12949 is a motor run capacitor rated at 50 microfarads (MFD) and 440 volts, designed to support the starting and running of single-phase AC motors in HVAC and related mechanical systems. Motor run capacitors maintain a continuous phase shift in the motor winding circuit, improving torque, efficiency, and power factor during operation. At 2.91 inches wide, 1.91 inches deep, and 4.75 inches high, this capacitor fits common oval or round capacitor mounting brackets. It weighs 0.7 pounds. HVAC technicians and electricians install this type of component during routine maintenance or when diagnosing a motor that runs hot, hums without starting, or fails to reach full speed. This capacitor is suited for single-phase PSC (permanent split capacitor) motors found in condenser fan motors, blower motors, and compressors in residential and light commercial HVAC equipment. It is a common replacement item during seasonal maintenance or unplanned service calls when a failed capacitor is identified as the cause of motor performance issues. The 440-volt rating provides compatibility across a wide range of equipment that may operate on either 370-volt or 440-volt rated circuits, as higher-rated capacitors are generally acceptable in lower-voltage applications per standard HVAC practice.
