OEM Carrier Dual Run Capacitor 50/7 MFD 370V & Start Capacitor Kit for PH13NR03600GAEAA

This OEM capacitor kit contains the two factory-specified capacitors for the Carrier PH13NR03600GAEAA heat pump condenser: the P291-5073RS dual run capacitor (50/7 MFD, 370V) and the P281-8806 start capacitor. Together, they supply the electrical charge needed to start and sustain the compressor and condenser fan motor through every cycle. A failed dual run capacitor is one of the most common heat pump service calls — symptoms include a loud hum with no motor movement, the unit short-cycling within minutes, or the system failing to start entirely. A degraded start capacitor causes hard-start conditions that overstress the compressor on every startup.

• Specs (Dual Run — P291-5073RS): 50/7 MFD (microfarad) | 370V rated | Round case | Factory-matched tolerance | Compressor + fan terminals
• Specs (Start Capacitor — P281-8806): OEM Carrier start capacitor | Reduces locked-rotor amperage on compressor startup | Extends compressor service life
• OEM vs Generic: OEM capacitors are built to Carrier's exact factory tolerances. Generic aftermarket units commonly run ±10% MFD deviation, which accelerates motor winding wear and can shorten compressor life significantly. Note: Carrier sources capacitors from select manufacturers — the label on the capacitor may reflect the component manufacturer's name rather than the Carrier brand name.
• Install difficulty: 2/5 — Always discharge the capacitor fully before touching any terminals (use an insulated resistor or discharge tool). Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, multimeter (capacitance setting). Photograph all wiring connections before disconnecting. Replace both capacitors together for maximum reliability and to avoid a return call.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. Ships same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Engineered for the Carrier PH13NR03600GAEAA single-stage heat pump condenser. Always verify MFD, voltage, and terminal configuration against your unit's data plate before ordering. Our team is available to confirm fitment — reach out before you buy if you have any questions.
