Rheem-Ruud 43-25133-09 Run Capacitor
The Rheem-Ruud 43-25133-09 is a professional-grade 60/3 MFD 370 VAC round dual run capacitor engineered for high-demand HVAC compressor and fan motor applications. As an OEM-spec component, this dual run capacitor provides the precise phase shift required for Permanent Split Capacitor (PSC) motors, ensuring optimal starting torque and operational efficiency. Built to withstand rigors of the field, it features a 10,000 AFC (Available Fault Current) rating and is manufactured without PCBs. The heavy-duty aluminum casing housing an oil-filled metalized polypropylene film dielectric ensures stable capacitance across its -40°C to +70°C operating temperature range. For technicians servicing Rheem, Ruud, or WeatherKing condensers, this round dual run capacitor serves as a direct replacement part, maintaining system power factor correction and reducing high-amperage heat buildup that leads to premature motor failure.
Key Benefits- OEM Compatibility: Exact electrical match for Rheem-Ruud 43-25133-09, ensuring proper fitment in standard 2.5-inch diameter brackets.
- Dual-Section Design: Integrated 60 microfarad and 3 microfarad sections streamline wiring for both the HVAC compressor and outdoor fan motor.
- High Safety Standards: UL 810 certified with an internal pressure-sensitive interrupter (PSI) designed to disconnect the capacitor in the event of an internal fault.
- Reliable Performance: Rated for 370Vac at 50/60Hz, providing the consistent reactive power needed for high-efficiency cooling cycles.
Can I use a 440V capacitor to replace a 370V 60/3 MFD unit?
Yes, you can always step up in voltage rating. Use of a 440Vac capacitor is a common field upgrade to provide additional overhead for voltage spikes, provided the physical dimensions fit the original mounting strap.
Does it matter if my old capacitor is oval and this one is round?
As long as the capacitance (60/3 MFD) and voltage (370V) are identical, the shape is purely the mechanical housing; however, you will need a round mounting bracket or strap if the original was oval.
What are the signs that my 60/3 MFD capacitor has failed?
Technicians should look for physical bulging at the top terminals, oil leaks, or a compressor failing to start while emitting a humming sound. Use a multimeter to verify if either the Herm (60uF) or Fan (3uF) side has drifted more than 5% from its rated capacitance.
