Amana-Goodman CAP050400440RTP Run Capacitor
The Amana-Goodman CAP050400440RTP is a heavy-duty dual run capacitor designed for commercial and residential HVAC systems requiring a 40/5 microfarad rating with a 440 VAC operating voltage. This round dual capacitor provides dependable phase shifting for both the compressor and condenser fan motor, helping ensure efficient motor starting and stable operation during demanding cooling cycles. Manufactured to meet OEM electrical specifications, the CAP050400440RTP is commonly used in Amana and Goodman air conditioning and heat pump systems, while also serving as a direct replacement for compatible units with identical electrical ratings. Its corrosion-resistant metal housing and high-quality dielectric construction are engineered to withstand continuous outdoor exposure and high ambient temperatures. Contractors replacing weak or failed capacitors should always verify the microfarad rating, voltage, terminal configuration, and physical dimensions before installation to maintain proper compressor performance and maximize system efficiency.
Key Benefits
OEM Replacement: Designed to meet original Amana-Goodman specifications for proper fit and electrical performance.
Dual Run Design: Supports both the compressor and condenser fan motor using a single 40/5 MFD capacitor.
440 VAC Rating: Higher voltage rating provides compatibility with systems requiring 370 VAC or 440 VAC capacitors when the capacitance matches OEM requirements.
Durable Construction: Metal case and high-quality internal components are designed for long-term operation in demanding outdoor HVAC environments.
Common Questions
What does the 40/5 microfarad rating mean?
The capacitor provides 40 MFD for the compressor circuit and 5 MFD for the condenser fan motor, allowing both components to operate from a single dual run capacitor.
Can a 440 VAC capacitor replace a 370 VAC capacitor?
Yes. A 440 VAC capacitor can typically replace a 370 VAC capacitor as long as the microfarad rating (40/5 MFD) and terminal configuration match the original specifications.
What should I verify before replacing this capacitor?
Confirm the capacitance (40/5 MFD), voltage rating, round case style, terminal identification (C, FAN, HERM), mounting dimensions, and your equipment model number before installation.
