Value Collection 12887 Dual Run Capacitor 30/5 Mfd 440V

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 12887 is a dual run motor capacitor rated at 30/5 microfarads (MFD) and 440 volts, designed for use in single-phase HVAC systems. Dual run capacitors serve two motor windings simultaneously, supporting both the compressor and the condenser fan motor from a single component. Standing 3.75 inches tall and weighing 0.7 pounds, this capacitor is a compact replacement for failed or weakened units. Licensed HVAC technicians performing routine maintenance or emergency service installs will find this a standard fit for residential split systems and packaged units.

This capacitor is suited for residential and light commercial HVAC applications where a 30/5 MFD, 440-volt dual run capacitor is required. The 440-volt rating makes it compatible with both 370-volt and 440-volt system requirements, providing flexibility across a range of equipment. It is commonly installed in condenser units as part of a seasonal tune-up, a compressor hard-start diagnosis, or a capacitor swap following a no-cooling service call.

Key Features

• Dual run design supports both compressor and condenser fan motor windings
• 30/5 MFD capacitance rating for split-terminal applications
• 440-volt rating compatible with 370V and 440V system requirements
• Compact form factor at 3.75 inches tall and 0.7 pounds
• Single-unit packaging suitable for one-per-job service calls

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement dual run capacitor for residential and light commercial single-phase HVAC systems requiring a 30/5 MFD, 440-volt rated component.

Installation Notes

Capacitor replacement is performed by licensed HVAC technicians. Disconnect and lock out power to the condensing unit before opening the electrical compartment. Capacitors store a lethal charge even after power is removed — discharge the capacitor through a resistor before handling. Follow NEC guidelines and local codes when routing and terminating leads.
