Bard 8552-059 Dual Run Capacitor 60/10 Mfd 370V

Product Description

The BARD 8552-059 is a dual run capacitor rated at 60/10 microfarads (MFD) and 370 volts, designed for use in the compressor circuit of wall mounted package air conditioning units. This capacitor provides the start and run assistance required to keep the compressor and fan motor operating efficiently under load. It is a direct replacement component installed by licensed HVAC technicians during routine maintenance or compressor circuit diagnostics. The 60 MFD winding supports the compressor, while the 10 MFD winding supports the fan motor, making this a single-can solution for both loads.

This capacitor is specified for use in the BARD WL482-A wall mounted package air conditioner. Wall mounted package units are commonly installed in commercial and light-industrial applications where space and ductwork constraints make self-contained wall units the preferred solution. Replacement of a failed or weak run capacitor is one of the most common compressor circuit service calls on this equipment type.

Key Features

• Dual run capacitor supports both compressor (60 MFD) and fan motor (10 MFD) from a single unit
• Rated at 370 volts for compatibility with standard single-phase compressor circuits
• OEM replacement part for BARD wall mounted package air conditioners
• Compact single-can design simplifies installation in tight equipment compartments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-specified replacement for the BARD WL482-A wall mounted package air conditioner.

Installation Notes

Capacitor replacement should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician. Always disconnect and lock out power to the unit before accessing the electrical compartment. Capacitors can retain a dangerous charge even after power is removed — discharge the capacitor using a resistive discharge tool before handling. Confirm that MFD ratings and voltage rating meet or exceed OEM specifications before installation.
