OEM Carrier Single Run Capacitor 4 MFD 370V for Model PY2PNB060130AA

This OEM Carrier single run capacitor (part number P291-0403, also cross-referenced as P291-2503) is the factory-specified replacement for the Carrier PY2PNB060130AA packaged heat pump system. As a run capacitor, this component remains energized throughout the entire operating cycle of the motor — stabilizing voltage, improving efficiency, and reducing wear on the blower or condenser fan motor. When this capacitor begins to fail, symptoms include a motor that hums but won't spin, intermittent short-cycling, reduced cooling or heating output, or a motor that runs hot and trips its internal overload. Replacing it promptly prevents downstream compressor and motor damage.

  • Specs: 4 MFD (microfarad) | 370 VAC rated | Oval case | ±5% capacitance tolerance | 50/60 Hz | Replaces OEM P/N 97F5704, HC90AA004, HC91CA004, HC90AB004
  • OEM vs Generic: This genuine Carrier/Totaline capacitor is reliability-tested to 60,000 service hours per United Technologies application parameters. Generic alternatives often carry ±10% tolerance, accelerating motor stress and shortening service life — especially in a high-cycle packaged heat pump application like the PY2PNB060130AA.
  • Install difficulty: 2/5 — Always shut off power at the disconnect and allow the capacitor 5+ minutes to self-discharge before handling. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, multimeter with capacitance function. Photograph all wiring terminals before disconnecting. Verify MFD and voltage rating on the data plate before installing.
  • Warranty & Shipping: 1-year OEM factory warranty. RoHS compliant. UL approved with pressure-sensitive interrupter. In stock — ships same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Designed for the Carrier PY2PNB060130AA 5-ton packaged heat pump. Also fits other Carrier, Bryant, and Payne models requiring a 4 MFD 370V oval single run capacitor. Always verify the MFD and voltage rating on your unit's capacitor data label before ordering. Our HVAC parts specialists are available to confirm fitment before you buy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Capacitor fit my Carrier PY2PNB060130AA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the Carrier PY2PNB060130AA. It is a direct drop-in replacement that fits without modification. Always verify the model number on your equipment nameplate before ordering.
How do I replace the capacitor on my Carrier PY2PNB060130AA?
Difficulty: Easy (20–30 min)
Step 1: Turn off power at breaker. Step 2: Open condensing unit panel. Step 3: Photograph the old capacitor wiring (Common/Herm/Fan). Step 4: Discharge old capacitor with insulated screwdriver. Step 5: Disconnect and remove old capacitor. Step 6: Mount new capacitor, reconnect wires to matching terminals. Step 7: Close panel, restore power, test. Tools: screwdriver, needle-nose pliers.
My AC hums but won’t start. What part do I need?
An AC that hums but won’t start is the classic symptom of a failed capacitor. The capacitor provides the electrical boost to start the compressor. When it fails, you hear humming but the motor can’t overcome inertia. Other symptoms: fan spinning slowly, AC cycling on/off rapidly, or a visibly swollen capacitor. Fix: replace capacitor ($15–$80 DIY, 30 min).
Is this capacitor compatible with Bryant or Payne too?
Many Carrier parts are cross-compatible with Bryant and Payne since all three brands are manufactured by Carrier Global Corporation. The same physical part is often used across brand labels with different model numbers. To verify: check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or email info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number.
Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my Carrier capacitor?
OEM strongly recommended. OEM capacitors have ±6% MFD tolerance vs aftermarket ±10%. The looser tolerance causes motor winding stress, higher temps, and shorter compressor life. Price difference is only $10–$20 — OEM is the clear value choice.
How fast does National HVAC Parts ship?
Orders placed before 3:00 PM CST ship the same business day. Standard delivery is 2–5 business days anywhere in the continental United States. Express shipping available at checkout. We ship from Houston, TX to all 50 states. 30-day return policy on all parts.
