OEM Carrier Dual Run Capacitor 55+5 MFD 440V for Model PY3PNA042060AA

This OEM dual run capacitor is the factory-specified replacement for the Carrier PY3PNA042060AA split-system air conditioner. The dual run capacitor stores and releases the electrical charge required to start and sustain both the compressor and the condenser fan motor simultaneously. When this capacitor weakens or fails, common symptoms include a humming noise with no motor movement, the compressor starting but the fan not spinning, or the system short-cycling and tripping on thermal overload within minutes of startup. Left unaddressed, a failing capacitor accelerates wear on the compressor — one of the most expensive components in your system.

• Specs: 55+5 MFD (microfarad) | 440V rated (440V is backward-compatible with original 370V spec) | Round case | Factory-matched ±5% tolerance | Manufactured by Totaline for Carrier
• OEM vs Generic: This OEM Totaline-manufactured capacitor meets exact Carrier factory tolerances. Generic off-brand capacitors commonly run at ±10% MFD deviation, which increases motor amp draw, generates excess heat, and shortens compressor and fan motor life significantly.
• Install difficulty: 2/5 — Always discharge the old capacitor before handling. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, multimeter (capacitance setting). Photograph all wire connections before disconnecting. Match terminals: HERM (compressor), FAN (condenser fan motor), and C (common).
• Warranty & Shipping: 1-year OEM factory warranty. Ships same business day from our warehouse. Also replaces OEM part numbers P291-5553RS, P291-5554RS, P291-0403, P291-1503, HC98KA056, and HC98JA056.

Compatibility: Engineered for Carrier model PY3PNA042060AA condensing units. Verify the MFD rating and voltage on your unit's data plate before ordering — using an incorrect MFD value can damage your compressor or fan motor. Not sure if this is the right part?
