The DIVERSITECH trcfd555 is a professional-grade dual run capacitor rated at 55+5 microfarads (MFD) and 440/370 volts, designed for motor run applications in HVAC equipment. Dual run capacitors serve two motor circuits simultaneously, typically the compressor and the condenser fan motor, in a single round can. This unit is compatible with both 50 Hz and 60 Hz systems and carries a round form factor measuring 2.50 inches in diameter and 4.13 inches in height. It is installed by licensed HVAC technicians during routine capacitor replacement or system repair calls.
The trcfd555 is suited for residential and commercial HVAC applications involving split-system air conditioners, heat pumps, and package units. Its dual-rated 440/370-volt design accommodates variation in field voltage, making it a practical replacement capacitor for both ducted and ductless system installations. The round form factor is the most common configuration found in condenser units, allowing straightforward swap-out in tight equipment compartments.

Installation Notes
Capacitor replacement is performed by a licensed HVAC technician. Always disconnect power to the unit and discharge the existing capacitor fully before handling any capacitor terminals, as stored charge can cause serious injury. Verify the MFD rating, voltage rating, and physical dimensions match the existing capacitor before installation. Follow NEC requirements and the equipment manufacturer's wiring diagram when making terminal connections.
