PowerWell 35+5Mfd Uf 370Vac Or 440Volt Dual Running Round Capacitor Pw-35/5/R for Cold Straight Condenser Or Heat Pump Air Conditioner 35/5 Micro Farad

Description

A capacitor is an electrical component that temporarily stores an electrical charge. A dual "working capacitor" supports two electric motors, such as a fan motor and a compressor. Dual operation round capacitors are used to start and operate the unit more efficiently. It saves space by combining two physical capacitors into one case. The dual capacitor has three terminals labeled "C", "FAN" and "HERM", which represent the *C*ommon, Fan, and *HERM* compressor. the capacitance (µF MFD micro farad), such as 60 plus 5µF, and also the voltage. A 440 volt capacitor can be used in place of 370 volts as it is better built, but the 370 cannot be used in place of 440 volts. It will work for a while and fail prematurely, as exceeding the capacitor rated voltage will cause the breakdown of the dielectric and the short circuit of the capacitor. Same as an electrical wire - 600V rating wire is better than 300V. Capacitance (µF or MFD or micro farad) should be the same or remain within 10%+ or 5% - of its original value. Example: 35 µF cap can be replaced by 33 - 38 MFD with equal or better voltage capacitor. If your fan is working but the compressor is not, or if the capacitor is domed at the top, most likely your capacitor is defective. The round capacitor can be used to replace an oval-shaped with the same MFD and Volt specifications. You'll ask "Why do I need a cap rated 440V in my A/C?" device. When the supply voltage is applied to the engine working winding, the voltage through the starting winding will be increased to a higher voltage value. A motor acts as a transformer with the operating winding acting as primary and the starting winding acting as a secondary one. that's why the capacitor has a nominal voltage much higher than 230, send
