Mars tp-cap-70/5/440usar 70/5 Mfd 440V Dual Run Capacitor

Product Description

The MARS tp-cap-70/5/440usar is a round dual run capacitor rated at 70/5 microfarads (MFD) and 440 volts, manufactured in the USA. Dual run capacitors serve both the compressor and the condenser fan motor in a single unit, reducing component count and simplifying replacement. This capacitor is designed to maintain proper phase relationships and starting torque for motor windings under continuous run conditions. Licensed HVAC technicians install this part during routine maintenance, compressor service, or fan motor replacement in residential and light commercial cooling equipment.

This capacitor is suited for use in split-system air conditioners and heat pumps where a single round capacitor serves both the compressor and condenser fan motor. The 70 MFD rating supports the compressor terminal while the 5 MFD rating supports the fan motor terminal. The 440-volt rating provides a safety margin above the standard 370-volt operating voltage found in most residential systems, making it a compatible upgrade in applications where either a 370-volt or 440-volt rated capacitor is specified.

Key Features

• Dual run capacitor: 70 MFD compressor terminal and 5 MFD fan motor terminal in one round housing
• 440-volt rating compatible with both 370-volt and 440-volt specified applications
• USA manufactured construction
• Round form factor for straightforward bracket or strap mounting in condenser units
• Sold individually (each)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement dual run capacitor for residential and light commercial split-system air conditioners and heat pumps requiring a 70/5 MFD, 440-volt round capacitor.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed HVAC technician. Disconnect and lock out all power to the unit before handling capacitors, and verify residual charge has been safely discharged before touching terminals. Confirm the MFD ratings and voltage rating on the replacement match or exceed the specifications of the original capacitor. Follow applicable local codes and manufacturer wiring diagrams when reconnecting terminals.
