Rcd p291-1254 Run Capacitor 12.25 Mfd 370/440V

Product Description

The RCD p291-1254 is a single run capacitor designed for use in HVAC equipment where a reliable oval-style, quick-connect replacement is required. Rated at 12.25 microfarads (MFD) with a dual-rated voltage of 370/440 volts AC and a frequency range of 50/60 Hz, this capacitor supports consistent motor start and run performance in air conditioning and heat pump systems. The aluminum construction and oval form factor are typical of OEM-style run capacitors used in packaged and split-system HVAC equipment. A licensed HVAC technician handles replacement during routine service or when diagnosing motor performance issues.

This capacitor is suited for residential and light commercial HVAC applications where a single, oval-style run capacitor with quick-connect terminals is specified. The 370/440V dual-voltage rating provides compatibility across a range of system voltages commonly found in the field. Compatible models listed in the product data include 48DJE028 600, 48DJD024 600, and 48KH 030 300. Always verify capacitance, voltage rating, and physical dimensions against the existing capacitor before installation.

Key Features

• 12.25 MFD capacitance with plus or minus 6 percent tolerance for precise motor support
• Dual-rated at 370/440 volts AC for broad system voltage compatibility
• Oval shape with quick-connect terminals for straightforward drop-in replacement
• Aluminum construction for durability in typical HVAC service environments
• Temperature rating of -29 to 68 degrees C covers standard operating conditions
• Single capacitor configuration; not a dual-run unit

Compatibility

Listed compatible models include 48DJE028 600, 48DJD024 600, and 48KH 030 300. Always cross-reference the MFD rating, voltage rating, and terminal type on the existing capacitor before replacing.

Installation Notes

Capacitor replacement is performed by a licensed HVAC technician. Before servicing, disconnect and lock out power to the unit and discharge the existing capacitor using an insulated resistor or discharge tool — capacitors retain a lethal charge even after power is removed. Verify that the replacement MFD value, voltage rating, and terminal type match the original before installation. Follow all applicable local electrical codes and manufacturer service guidelines.
