Value Collection 11944 Motor Run Capacitor 72-88 Mfd

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 11944 is a motor run capacitor rated at 72-88 microfarads (MFD) and 250 volts. Motor run capacitors maintain the phase shift in a single-phase AC motor after startup, keeping the motor running smoothly and efficiently. This capacitor is sized for fractional to mid-range horsepower motors commonly found in HVAC blower assemblies, condenser fan motors, and related rotating equipment. It weighs 0.35 pounds and ships as a single unit. HVAC technicians and electricians install this type of component when a motor runs hot, hums without starting, or fails to reach full speed.

This capacitor is suited for residential and light commercial HVAC applications where a round or oval motor run capacitor in the 72-88 MFD range is specified. Typical install locations include air handler blower motor circuits and condenser fan motor circuits operating on single-phase power at or below 250 volts. Always verify the MFD rating and voltage rating against the motor nameplate before installation.

Key Features

• 72-88 MFD capacitance range covers applications requiring a mid-to-high range motor run capacitor
• 250-volt rating suitable for standard single-phase residential and light commercial motor circuits
• Compact form factor at 0.35 pounds for easy installation in tight equipment cabinets
• Single-unit packaging for individual replacement service calls

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for single-phase AC motors requiring a 72-88 MFD, 250-volt motor run capacitor. Confirm MFD range and voltage rating match the original capacitor before installation.

Installation Notes

Motor run capacitors are installed by licensed HVAC technicians or electricians. Always disconnect and lock out power to the unit before servicing capacitors, and discharge any stored voltage using an insulated resistor tool before handling. Verify that the replacement capacitor MFD and voltage ratings match the motor nameplate specifications exactly. Follow applicable NEC guidelines for capacitor installation and equipment grounding.
