Rectorseal M12005 Run Capacitor 5 Mfd 370V Oval

Product Description

The RECTORSEAL M12005 is a 5 microfarad (MFD), 370-volt oval run capacitor used in single-phase motors found in HVAC systems. Run capacitors maintain a continuous phase shift in the start winding of PSC motors, keeping the motor running efficiently once it has started. This unit is rated at 5 MFD and 370 volts, making it a common replacement for condenser fan motors and blower motors in residential and light commercial equipment. Licensed HVAC technicians install and replace run capacitors as part of routine service calls and seasonal maintenance.

The M12005 is suited for use in residential and light commercial HVAC applications where a 5 MFD, 370-volt oval capacitor is specified. Typical installations include outdoor condensing units and air handler blower assemblies. The oval form factor fits standard capacitor brackets found in most equipment cabinets. This capacitor is a direct-replacement style component and is commonly stocked by service techs for field repair work.

Key Features

• 5 MFD capacitance rating for PSC motor run applications
• 370-volt rating compatible with standard single-phase HVAC motor circuits
• Oval form factor fits common capacitor mounting brackets
• Compact dimensions suited for tight equipment cabinets

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement run capacitor for residential and light commercial HVAC motors requiring a 5 MFD, 370-volt oval capacitor.

Installation Notes

Run capacitors must be installed by a licensed HVAC technician. Always disconnect and lock out power to the unit before handling capacitors, as they store a charge and must be safely discharged before removal. Verify the MFD rating and voltage rating of the existing capacitor before installing a replacement. Follow all applicable local electrical codes and the equipment manufacturer guidelines during installation.
