OEM Carrier Dual Run Capacitor 35+5 MFD 370V for Model PY3PNA024060AA

This is the factory-specified OEM dual run capacitor for the Carrier PY3PNA024060AA condensing unit, supplied under Carrier part number P291-3553RS (superseded by P291-3554RS) and manufactured by GE/Genteq to Carrier's exact tolerances. The dual run capacitor stores and delivers the electrical charge needed to start and continuously run both the compressor (HERM terminal) and the condenser fan motor (FAN terminal) simultaneously. A failing capacitor is one of the most common causes of a no-cooling call — symptoms include a unit that hums but won't start, a condenser fan that spins only when manually nudged, or a system that short-cycles and trips the breaker within minutes of startup.

• Specs: 35+5 MFD (microfarad) | 370 VAC rated | Round case style | Three terminals: HERM / C / FAN | Factory ±5% MFD tolerance | GE/Genteq manufactured (OEM supplier to Carrier)
• OEM vs Generic: This OEM unit is manufactured by GE to Carrier's exact specification. Generic aftermarket capacitors commonly run at ±10% MFD tolerance, which accelerates wear on the compressor and condenser fan motor bearings, shortening equipment lifespan. Includes companion single run capacitors P291-0403 (4 MFD 370V) and P291-1503 (15 MFD 370V) for complete capacitor service on this platform.
• Install difficulty: 2/5 — Always shut off power at the disconnect and wait 5 minutes for the capacitor to fully discharge before touching any terminals. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, multimeter (capacitance mode). Photograph all wiring before disconnecting. Terminals are labeled HERM, C, and FAN — never swap leads.
• Warranty & Shipping: 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects. In stock at our warehouse — orders placed before 3 PM local time ship same business day.

Compatibility: Engineered for the Carrier PY3PNA024060AA condensing unit. Always verify the MFD rating and voltage on your unit's data plate before ordering — voltage rating must match or exceed the original (a 440V capacitor is an acceptable upgrade for a 370V application). Cross-reference part numbers: P291-3553RS, P291-3554RS (current supersession), GE 97F9834, Genteq 97F9834BZ3, HC98JA036, HC98CA036. Questions about fitment?
