OEM Carrier Single Run Capacitor 30 MFD 440V for Model 09DE098C500

This OEM Totaline single run capacitor (part number P291-3004) is the factory-specified replacement for the Carrier 09DE098C500. The run capacitor provides the continuous phase-shifted electrical charge that keeps the motor spinning at rated efficiency. When it weakens or fails, you'll notice symptoms such as an audible hum with no motor movement, the unit failing to start, or a motor that runs hot and short-cycles within minutes of startup.

• Specs: 30 MFD (microfarad) | 440V rated | Oval case | 50/60 Hz | Factory ±5% tolerance — meets or exceeds OEM spec
• OEM vs Generic: This is a genuine Totaline/Carrier OEM capacitor. Generic alternatives frequently ship at ±10% MFD tolerance, accelerating motor winding wear and shortening compressor and fan motor service life.
• Install difficulty: 2/5 — Always discharge the capacitor fully before touching terminals. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, multimeter (capacitance mode). Photograph all wiring connections before removal. Average install time: 15–20 minutes.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. In stock and ships same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Designed as the direct OEM replacement for Carrier model 09DE098C500. Always verify the MFD rating and voltage printed on your existing capacitor's data label before ordering — substituting an incorrect MFD value will damage the motor. Have questions about fitment?
