The Enviro-tec PE-12-0503 is a 7.5 MFD 370VAC oval run capacitor engineered for continuous duty in high-demand HVACR applications. This 7.5 microfarad 370V capacitor is specifically designed to provide the necessary phase shift to maintain high motor torque and efficiency in unit ventilators, fan coils, and VAV box blower motors. Rated at 370 VAC, it features a low dissipation factor and is housed in a robust oil-filled aluminum casing to facilitate efficient heat dissipation during peak operation. The PE-12-0503 utilizes a non-PCB dielectric fluid and is built to withstand rigorous thermal cycling, ensuring stable capacitance values despite fluctuating voltage conditions. This HVAC motor run capacitor is a direct OEM replacement for Enviro-tec systems, ensuring the power factor correction remains within the tolerance levels required for optimal compressor and fan motor longevity. For contractors, this is a standard-spec component that ensures high voltage capacitor reliability without the risk of early dielectric breakdown.

Key Benefits
  • Precise 7.5 MFD Rating: Ensures consistent motor starting torque and optimal running efficiency for fan motors.
  • 370VAC Tolerance: Designed to handle standard line voltage surges without compromising internal dielectric integrity.
  • Oval Metal Housing: Compact form factor fits into tight electrical control boxes common in unit ventilators and air handlers.
  • Individually Sealed Terminals: Features standard 1/4 inch quick-connect terminals for rapid installation and secure electrical contact.
  • Thermal Stability: Engineered to provide stable performance in high-ambient temperature environments common in HVAC cabinets.
Common Questions

Can I use a 440VAC capacitor to replace this 370VAC model?
Yes, a capacitor with a higher voltage rating (440VAC) can safely replace a 370VAC unit like the PE-12-0503, provided the 7.5 MFD rating and physical dimensions are identical.

What are the symptoms of a failing Enviro-tec PE-12-0503?
Technicians should look for a "bulging" or swollen casing, an audible hum from the fan motor, or the motor failing to start despite receiving proper line voltage.

Is this capacitor polarized?
No, this is a non-polarized AC run capacitor; it can be connected in either direction within the circuit for standard HVAC fan motor applications.
