Amana Ptac cap020300450cs Dual Round Capacitor 2/30 Mfd 450V

Product Description

The AMANA PTAC cap020300450cs is a dual run capacitor rated at 2/30 microfarads (MFD) and 450 volts, designed for use in packaged terminal air conditioner and heat pump units. Dual run capacitors support two motor windings simultaneously, typically the compressor and the fan motor, within a single round housing. This component maintains the phase shift needed to keep motors running efficiently and helps reduce startup current draw. Installation is performed by qualified HVAC technicians as part of routine service or motor replacement work.

This capacitor is intended for AMANA PTAC room air conditioning and heating systems. It fits into the electrical compartment of PTAC units and is a direct service replacement for failed or out-of-tolerance capacitors found during preventive maintenance checks or no-cool diagnostics. The dual configuration eliminates the need for two separate capacitors, making it well suited to the compact internal layout common in PTAC equipment.

Key Features

• Dual run capacitor supports both compressor and fan motor windings from a single unit
• Rated at 2/30 MFD for proper phase relationship across both motor circuits
• 450-volt rating provides operating margin above typical PTAC supply voltage
• Round housing design fits standard PTAC electrical compartment mounting clips
• Direct OEM-style replacement for AMANA PTAC service applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement capacitor for AMANA PTAC room air conditioning and heating units requiring a 2/30 MFD 450V dual run capacitor.

Installation Notes

Capacitor replacement is performed by licensed HVAC technicians. Disconnect and lock out all power to the PTAC unit before opening the electrical access panel. Capacitors store a charge even after power is removed — always discharge the capacitor safely using an appropriate discharge tool before handling or disconnecting leads. Verify the MFD ratings and voltage rating of the replacement match the original unit exactly before installation.
