Nortek Global Hvac 01-0288 Dual Run Capacitor 440V 7.5+30 Mfd

Product Description

The NORTEK GLOBAL HVAC 01-0288 is a dual round run capacitor rated at 440 volts and 7.5 plus 30 microfarads (MFD). Run capacitors provide continuous phase-shifted current to the start and run windings of single-phase AC motors, maintaining steady torque and efficient operation. This dual capacitor serves both the compressor and the fan motor from a single round canister, reducing cabinet space and simplifying wiring. HVAC technicians install this capacitor as a direct replacement in split-system air conditioners, heat pumps, and package units during routine service calls or after a failed capacitor diagnosis.

This capacitor is suited for residential and light-commercial HVAC applications where a dual round run capacitor at 440 volts is required. The 440-volt rating makes it appropriate for standard single-phase systems and provides a safety margin above the typical 370-volt operating range. It fits installations where the compressor winding requires 30 MFD and the condenser fan motor requires 7.5 MFD, both supplied from the same unit.

Key Features

• Dual-section design powers both compressor and condenser fan motor from one capacitor
• 440-volt rating for broad compatibility with single-phase residential and light-commercial HVAC equipment
• 7.5 MFD fan motor section and 30 MFD compressor section in a single round canister
• Round canister form factor fits standard capacitor brackets and clips

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement dual run capacitor for single-phase residential and light-commercial HVAC systems requiring a 440-volt, 7.5 plus 30 MFD dual round capacitor.

Installation Notes

A licensed HVAC technician should perform capacitor replacement. Disconnect and lock out all electrical power to the unit before opening the electrical compartment, and discharge the existing capacitor using an insulated resistor or discharge tool before handling — capacitors can hold a dangerous charge even after power is removed. Follow NEC guidelines and the equipment manufacturer wiring diagram when reconnecting terminals. Do not energize the system with a capacitor that is outside the rated MFD tolerance, as this can damage motor windings.
