Rectorseal M12294 Dual Run Capacitor 60/5 Mfd 440V

Product Description

The RECTORSEAL M12294 is a dual run capacitor rated at 60/5 microfarads (MFD) and 440 volts, designed for use in residential and light commercial HVAC systems. Dual run capacitors support both the compressor and the condenser fan motor from a single component, reducing cabinet space and simplifying replacement. The round form factor measures 2.5 inches in diameter and 4.375 inches in height, making it a compact fit for standard condensing unit capacitor brackets. Licensed HVAC technicians install this component as part of routine maintenance or compressor and fan motor diagnostics.

This capacitor is suited for split-system air conditioners and heat pump condensing units where a single dual run capacitor powers the compressor start winding and the outdoor fan motor. The 440-volt rating provides operating headroom above the standard 370-volt systems, making it a common cross-compatible replacement in both 370V and 440V applications. It is appropriate for residential condensing units and smaller commercial rooftop equipment requiring a round-style dual run capacitor.

Key Features

• Dual run capacitor supports both compressor and condenser fan motor from one unit
• 60/5 MFD rating covers common compressor and fan motor capacitance requirements
• 440-volt rating compatible with standard 370V and 440V HVAC systems
• Round form factor fits standard condensing unit capacitor mounting brackets
• Compact dimensions: 2.5 inches diameter by 4.375 inches height

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement dual run capacitor for residential and light commercial split-system air conditioners and heat pumps requiring a 60/5 MFD, 440-volt round capacitor.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed HVAC technician. Always disconnect and lock out power to the condensing unit before handling capacitors — capacitors store a charge and must be safely discharged with a resistive discharge tool before removal. Verify the MFD ratings and voltage rating on the original capacitor before installing the replacement. Follow local electrical codes and NEC guidelines for low-voltage and refrigeration equipment service.
