Tradepro tp-cap-40/440 Oval Run Capacitor 40 Mfd 440V

Product Description

The TRADEPRO tp-cap-40/440 is a single-rated 40 MFD, 440-volt oval run capacitor designed to maintain stable motor operation in HVAC systems. Oil-filled aluminum construction delivers reliable capacitance retention across a wide operating temperature range. The capacitor is UL 810 listed and CSA recognized, meeting EIA-456-A standards, and is rated for arc flash containment to 10,000 AFC. Licensed HVAC technicians install this component as a direct service replacement in residential and light commercial air conditioning and heat pump applications.

This capacitor is suited for single-phase PSC motor circuits found in condensing unit fan motors and compressor start-assist applications. The oval case profile fits standard capacitor brackets commonly used in residential condensing units, making it a practical field-replacement part. Its 440-volt rating accommodates typical 208-to-240-volt single-phase supply circuits with appropriate voltage headroom.

• Oil-filled aluminum construction for stable long-term capacitance
• UL 810 listed and CSA recognized
• Meets EIA-456-A standard and rated to 10,000 AFC arc flash containment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement run capacitor for single-phase PSC motors in residential and light commercial HVAC condensing units and air handlers requiring a 40 MFD, 440-volt oval capacitor.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician. Disconnect and lock out all power to the unit before handling capacitors, as run capacitors store a lethal charge even after power is removed — always discharge the capacitor using an insulated resistor discharge tool before touching terminals. Verify the replacement capacitor matches the original MFD rating and voltage rating at or above the original specification. Follow applicable local electrical codes and the equipment manufacturer's service instructions.
