Packard POCFD2510 Run Capacitor

When you're out in the field and need a reliable replacement for an HVAC system, the Packard POCFD2510 is a standard choice for maintaining motor efficiency. This 25/10 MFD 440V dual run capacitor is built for the dual-purpose role of supporting both a compressor and a fan motor—ideal for professional service calls on residential and commercial split systems. Unlike lower-tier components, this oval run capacitor features 440V dual voltage rating (compatible with 370V applications), ensuring it can handle high-demand electrical environments without premature failure.

The metallized polypropylene film technology utilized in this unit provides self-healing properties, crucial for preventing localized breakdowns. As a technician, you'll appreciate the pressure-sensitive interrupter (PSI), which safely removes the capacitor from the circuit if internal pressure builds up, protecting the more expensive system components. The non-PCB, oil-filled design aids in superior heat dissipation, maintaining performance even during heat waves and high-cycle operation. This HVAC replacement capacitor is designed to meet EIA-456-A performance standards, offering a durable solution for PSC (Permanent Split Capacitor) motors.

• Dual-MFD Rating: Single unit manages a 25 MFD compressor and a 10 MFD fan motor, reducing truck stock requirements.
• Universal Voltage Compatibility: Rated at 440V, making it a suitable drop-in replacement for any 370V or 440V oval capacitor.
• Safety Interrupter: Integrated pressure-sensitive safety device prevents case rupture under fault conditions.
• Refined Form Factor: The compact oval housing facilitates installation in tight control boxes where round capacitors may not fit.

Can I use a 440V capacitor to replace a 370V unit?
Technically, yes. You can always go up in voltage rating (e.g., using a 440V to replace a 370V), but you must never go down. The Packard POCFD2510 is ideal for covering both ratings in the field.

Is this capacitor compatible with both 50Hz and 60Hz systems?
Yes, it is designed for both 50 and 60 Hertz operation, making it versatile for various international and domestic motor configurations.

What are the physical dimensions?
The oval body typically measures roughly 2.75 inches in diameter/width with a depth of about 1.75 inches, fitting standard mounting brackets found in most condenser units.
