Heil Quaker ICP 17400103000010 Round Capacitor
The Heil Quaker ICP 17400103000010 Round Capacitor is a high-performance 50 MFD 450V run capacitor engineered for demanding HVACR motor and compressor applications. Built as a direct OEM replacement part, this round run capacitor ensures your single-phase motors maintain the necessary phase shift for efficient continuous operation. With a 450VAC voltage rating, it provides a superior safety margin over standard 370V components, making it a reliable choice for International Comfort Products (ICP) equipment including Heil, Tempstar, and Comfortmaker units. The durable metallized polypropylene film construction and robust housing are designed to withstand high operating temperatures and frequent cycling, critical for preventing motor overheating and premature failure in the field.
Key Benefits- Optimized Motor Efficiency: Provides a steady 50 microfarad capacitance to ensure consistent torque and reduced energy consumption for HVAC compressors.
- Enhanced Voltage Tolerance: Rated for up to 450 Volts, allowing it to safely replace lower-rated 370V capacitors in standard service calls.
- Broad Compatibility: Serves as a precise fit for various Heil Quaker and ICP residential and commercial condensers.
- Reliable Construction: Designed for an extended service life under harsh electrical loads without the risk of common fluid leaks or terminal corrosion.
Can I use this 450V capacitor to replace a 370V version?
Yes. In HVACR applications, you can always go up in voltage rating (e.g., using a 450V to replace a 370V), but you must never go lower than the original equipment manufacturer's specification. The 50 MFD rating must match exactly.
What are the signs that this capacitor needs replacement?
Look for physical bulging at the top of the casing, oil leakage around the terminals, or a motor that hums but fails to spin. Using a multimeter to verify the microfarad (uF) output is the best way to confirm a failure.
Will this work with brands other than Heil Quaker?
While this is a specific ICP 17400103000010 part number, it is functionally compatible with any system requiring a 50 MFD 450V round run capacitor, provided the physical dimensions fit the mounting strap.
