TEMCo 35+5 uf/MFD 370-440 VAC Volts Round Dual Run Capacitor 50/60 Hz AC Electric - Lot -1 (Optional uf/MFD, Voltage and Lot Quantities Available)

Capacitor is like the only thing that goes wrong in air conditioner.1. So buy a spare AC capacitor2. If your condenser fan stops working (like mine did) it means your refrigerant is going to be hot. So, after you replace a compactor, be patient. and give a little time for it cool off before your turn AC back on.It's odd but the capacitor worked exactly for 3 years since purchase. I am waiting for the company reply on "5 year warranty" I'll update when i get the answer.TEMCo Industrial honored the warranty. Thank you for your business and support.

Very often a failed capacitor is the cause for a compressor and/or fan that won't run on a central air conditioner or heat pump. Sometimes the failure will be obvious in that the capacitor will have a noticeable bulge at one end or in extreme cases have split open. Before such a failure, it is a good idea to determine the value of capacitor(s) used in the unit outside the house. Before removing any equipment service covers, make sure to disconnect power to the unit by removing fuses and/or switching off the circuit breaker. Once power is removed. remove the equipment service cover and locate the capacitor(s). Some units have one capacitor with 3 terminals and others more than 1 capacitor with 2 terminals each. Note the capacitance value (MFD) and working voltage for the capacitor(s). Order the correct capacitor(s) for your unit with the same capacitance (MFD) and equal or higher voltage rating. Keep spares on hand in the event that your unit stops running one day. When installing the new capacitor(s), make sure to first remove unit power and to put the wires on the correct capacitor terminals marked C (common), FAN (fan), and HERM (compressor) in the case of a 3 terminal capacitor. It's a good idea to label the wires before removing them from the old capacitor(s) and even take photos as a guide for proper wire connection. If capacitor replacement solves the problem that's great. If not, further troubleshooting is in order and professional assistance should be sought.

Since I've learned how easy it is to replace an AC capacitor (did one with a little YouTube help in about 20 mins) - esp as this is the most common component to fail on a heat pump HVAC unit - I like to keep a spare. If the AC goes out at 9 PM on a Sun, I have a good shot at getting it back up & running, inexpensively & quickly.

Usually don't write reviews but since the seller stood by their product and sent a replacement I thought to give praise. I was surprised to be offered a new item even though it was past the return window but the description shows it guaranteed so I gave it a shot. They apologized and send a new one after contacting them by email.

Ought to work. I bought this to replace the one that went bad. I'll let you know more when it fails.

Perfect replacement for originalat a very good pricePrice is terrific

After getting ripped off by my local HVAC company Davis Brothers, in New Smyrna Beach, FL on the last Capacitor replacement. They charged me over $400 to replace this item. I got smart and did it myself for under $20 and less that 15 minutes. Do yourself and your wallet a favor and fix it yourself.

I have a Rheem raka-048jaz which stopped working recently. I shut off power to the unit and opened the panel and saw the wires to the capacitor were melted at the connection terminals. As one of the ground wires was also off the contactor, I suspected a short had occurred as based upon an initial visual inspection there did not appear to be any damage to the capacitor. I repaired the damage to the wires and reattached the ground to the contactor and started the unit. All appeared well initially, however I soon noticed a buzzing sound coming from the unit and that the fan was not running. Grabbed a yardstick and gave the fan a gentle push in the direction it would normally rotate to test the fan motor. Fan rotated easily and began to run. Shut the power off and took a closer look at the capacitor. The unit still had its original Aeromet II plastic enclosed capacitor in place. Upon closer inspection the old capacitor had melted under the "C" terminal. The damage was barely noticeable unless looking at it close up. Ordered this as a replacement from TEMCo on a Friday and had it in my hands by Tues with regular shipping. Installed easily in minutes. We're back in cold air. I probably saved $200 bucks off a service call. Good product, great price and quick delivery. It doesnt get any better. Thanks TEMCo. You are now my first stop should I need anything like this in the future.
