Carrier P291-5573RS Dual Run Capacitor

Product Description

The CARRIER P291-5573RS is a genuine OEM dual run capacitor designed for use in Carrier HVAC systems. A dual run capacitor serves two motor circuits simultaneously, typically supporting both the compressor and the condenser fan motor within a single cylindrical component. This design reduces the number of capacitors in the unit while maintaining reliable start and run performance. Licensed HVAC technicians install this part as a direct OEM-style replacement when the original capacitor tests out of tolerance, shows physical damage, or causes motor starting failures.

This capacitor is intended for residential and light commercial HVAC applications where a dual run capacitor is specified. It fits within the outdoor condensing unit and is replaced during routine service calls or system troubleshooting when compressor or condenser fan motor performance is degraded. Proper capacitor sizing is critical to motor longevity and system efficiency, and using a genuine OEM part ensures the rated values match the original equipment specification.

Key Features

• Genuine OEM replacement part sourced directly from Carrier
• Dual run capacitor supports two motor circuits in a single component
• Direct replacement maintains original equipment capacitance and voltage ratings
• Compact form factor suitable for standard condensing unit capacitor mounting locations

Compatibility

Designed as a genuine OEM replacement dual run capacitor for Carrier HVAC condensing units requiring the P291-5573RS specification.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician. Disconnect and lock out all power to the condensing unit before servicing the capacitor, as capacitors retain a dangerous charge even after power is removed and must be safely discharged prior to handling. Verify the replacement capacitor matches the original microfarad (MFD) and voltage ratings before installation. Follow all applicable local codes and the equipment manufacturer service documentation.
