Product Description
The HARTLAND CONTROLS tp-cap-3/440 is a single-rated oval motor run capacitor rated at 3 microfarads (MFD) and 440 VAC. Run capacitors maintain a continuous phase shift in single-phase motors, keeping them running efficiently after startup. This unit features aluminum oil-filled construction and is manufactured in accordance with UL 810 and EIA standard RS-456. It is a standard replacement component for single-phase PSC motors found in residential and light commercial HVAC equipment, including condenser fan motors and compressors. Licensed HVAC technicians are the primary installers for this type of component.
This capacitor is suited for use in single-phase motor applications common to residential and light commercial HVAC systems. The oval case design fits standard capacitor brackets and mounting clips used in condensing units and air handlers. Its 440 VAC rating makes it appropriate for use in 208-volt and 240-volt motor circuits. The 3 MFD rating should be matched exactly to the motor nameplate specification before installation.
Key Features
- 3 MFD single-rated run capacitor for PSC motor applications
- 440 VAC rating suitable for 208-volt and 240-volt single-phase circuits
- Oval case design fits standard condenser and air handler mounting brackets
- Aluminum oil-filled construction for thermal stability and long service life
- Manufactured in compliance with UL 810 and EIA standard RS-456
Compatibility
Designed as an OEM-style replacement run capacitor for single-phase PSC motors in residential and light commercial HVAC condensing units and air handlers requiring a 3 MFD, 440 VAC oval capacitor.
Installation Notes
Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician. Disconnect and lock out all power to the unit before servicing capacitors, as run capacitors store a charge and must be safely discharged before handling. Verify the replacement MFD rating and voltage rating match the motor nameplate exactly before installation. Secure the capacitor in its mounting bracket and confirm all terminal connections are tight and properly insulated before restoring power.
