Tradepro tp-cap-55/7.5/440-a Dual Run Capacitor 55+7.5 Mfd 440V

Product Description

The TRADEPRO tp-cap-55/7.5/440-a is a dual-run capacitor rated at 55 plus 7.5 microfarads (MFD) and 440 VAC, housed in an oval case. Dual-run capacitors serve two motor windings simultaneously — typically the compressor and the condenser fan motor — from a single component. This reduces parts count and simplifies replacement in split-system and packaged HVAC equipment. The unit carries UL and CSA recognition and is protected to 10,000 amperes of fault current (AFC). It meets EIA-456-A standards and undergoes electrical testing before leaving the factory, making it a direct OEM-quality substitute for failed or degraded capacitors in the field.

This capacitor is suited for residential and light-commercial HVAC systems where a dual-run oval capacitor is specified. Common install scenarios include replacing a failed run capacitor in a split-system air conditioner or heat pump, where the compressor winding draws the 55 MFD section and the condenser fan motor draws the 7.5 MFD section. The oval form factor fits standard capacitor brackets in outdoor condensing units. Licensed HVAC technicians performing seasonal tune-ups or no-cool service calls will find this a fit-and-finish OEM-style replacement.

Key Features

• Dual-run design: 55 MFD and 7.5 MFD in a single oval capacitor
• Rated for 440 VAC operation
• UL and CSA recognized
• Protected to 10,000 AFC for overcurrent safety
• Meets EIA-456-A electrical standards
• Electrically tested before shipment for OEM-quality assurance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement dual-run capacitor for residential and light-commercial air conditioners, heat pumps, and packaged HVAC units requiring a 55 plus 7.5 MFD, 440 VAC oval run capacitor.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician. Always disconnect and lock out power to the condensing unit before handling capacitors — capacitors store a lethal electrical charge and must be safely discharged before removal. Verify the MFD ratings and voltage rating of the original capacitor before installing a replacement. Secure the capacitor in the factory bracket and confirm all terminal connections are tight before restoring power.
