he 20/5 MFD 440V Dual Run Capacitor is an electrical component used in air conditioning and heat pump systems to help start and run the compressor and fan motor. This dual capacitor provides 20 microfarads (MFD) for the compressor and 5 microfarads (MFD) for the condenser fan motor, ensuring reliable motor performance and efficient system operation.
Designed for durability, the capacitor features a 440-volt rating, allowing it to handle higher voltage loads and providing longer service life compared to lower voltage capacitors. It is commonly installed in condensing units, HVAC systems, and air conditioners.
The capacitor typically includes three labeled terminals—C (Common), FAN, and HERM (Hermetic Compressor)—for easy and accurate wiring during installation or replacement.
