Hartland Controls CAP-20/5/440 Run Capacitor

The Hartland Controls CAP-20/5/440 is a high-performance 20/5 MFD 440V dual run capacitor engineered for critical HVACR motor and compressor applications. Designed to replace the legacy 12880 part number, this 370/440 VAC multipurpose component delivers consistent torque and power factor correction for both the compressor and the condenser fan motor. Built to UL 810 standards and EIA-456 compliance, it features a rugged aluminum oil-filled oval case construction that provides superior heat dissipation and reliability in demanding environments. For field technicians, this 20/5 microfarad oval dual run capacitor offers a versatile mounting profile and standard 1/4" quick-connect terminals to ensure a fast, secure fit during AC capacitor replacement. Utilizing 10,000 AFC internal protection, this Hartland Controls run capacitor is the professional choice for maintaining high-efficiency performance and preventing premature motor failure in light commercial or residential cooling systems.

• OEM Compatibility: Serves as a direct replacement for 12880 and other 20+5 MFD dual run capacitors.
• Dual-Rated Voltage: Operates at both 370V and 440V, making it a flexible solution for varying field requirements.
• Industrial Grade Build: Features an aluminum case with high-grade vegetable oil for effective thermal management and a typical 22,000-hour operating life.
• Safety Compliance: Meets EIA-456 standards and provides 10,000 AFC internal pressure protection for maximum circuit safety.

Common Questions

Can I use this 440V capacitor to replace a 370V unit?
Yes, a 440V-rated capacitor can safely replace a 370V unit with the same microfarad rating, as the voltage rating indicates the maximum surge it can handle. It provides an extra margin of safety for the motor.

What does the 20/5 MFD rating signify?
This is a dual-rated capacitor. The 20 MFD side is typically used for the compressor (HERM terminal), while the 5 MFD side is utilized for the condenser fan motor (FAN terminal).

Is the oval shape interchangeable with round capacitors?
Electrically, oval and round capacitors are identical if the MFD and voltage ratings match. However, you must ensure the physical mounting bracket in the unit can accommodate the oval-shaped housing.
