Rectorseal m12264 Dual Run Capacitor 30/5 Mfd 370V Round

Product Description

The RECTORSEAL m12264 is a dual run capacitor rated at 30/5 microfarads (MFD) and 370 volts, designed to support both the compressor and condenser fan motor in a single round housing. Built with an aluminum composition, this capacitor maintains continuous operation across a wide temperature range of -40 to 70 degrees C. With a rated operational life of 60,000 hours, it delivers the sustained energy storage and release required to start and run motors efficiently in air conditioning and refrigeration systems. Licensed HVAC technicians and refrigeration mechanics install this component as both an OEM replacement and an upgrade in existing equipment.

The m12264 is suited for residential and commercial air conditioning and refrigeration applications where a single dual run capacitor serves both the compressor and the fan motor simultaneously. Its round form factor fits standard capacitor brackets found in most condensing units. The 50/60 Hz rating makes it compatible with standard North American electrical systems. Techs will find it a practical direct replacement in condensing unit service work, particularly when both capacitor sections have degraded or when replacing a failed unit-run capacitor during a seasonal tune-up or emergency service call.

Key Features

• Dual capacitance design: 30 MFD for compressor, 5 MFD for condenser fan motor in one housing
• 370-volt operating voltage suitable for standard residential and commercial condensing units
• Round shape fits most OEM-style capacitor mounting brackets
• Rated operational life of 60,000 hours for extended service intervals
• Wide temperature rating from -40 to 70 degrees C for reliable performance in demanding environments
• Compatible with 50/60 Hz electrical systems

Compatibility

Designed for use in residential and commercial air conditioning and refrigeration systems requiring a round dual run capacitor rated at 30/5 MFD and 370 volts.

Installation Notes

Capacitor replacement is performed by licensed HVAC or refrigeration technicians. Always disconnect and lock out power to the condensing unit before handling any capacitor, and discharge the capacitor fully using an approved discharge tool before removal — stored charge can remain after power-down and presents a serious shock hazard. Verify MFD rating, voltage rating, and terminal count match the original component before installation. Follow applicable local electrical codes and manufacturer wiring diagrams when reconnecting terminals.
