OEM Payne Dual Run & Start Capacitor for Model PA13NR060000AAAA

This OEM-matched capacitor set includes the dual run capacitor (P291-8053RS) and start capacitor (P281-1766) factory-specified for the Payne PA13NR060000AAAA 5-ton single-stage split-system air conditioner. Capacitors store and deliver the electrical charge required to start and run the compressor and condenser fan motor. A failing capacitor typically causes a loud hum with no motor movement, intermittent short-cycling, or a complete no-cool condition — especially during peak summer heat when capacitors are stressed hardest.

  • Specs: Dual Run Capacitor P291-8053RS — round case, 440V rated, factory-matched MFD tolerance ±3%; Start Capacitor P281-1766 — high-capacitance boost for compressor hard-start assist, matched to PA13NR060000AAAA compressor draw
  • OEM vs Generic: OEM capacitors are manufactured to exact Payne/Carrier factory specifications with tight ±3% MFD tolerance. Aftermarket generics commonly run ±10%, which accelerates compressor winding wear, shortens motor life, and can void equipment warranties.
  • Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Always disconnect power at the breaker and discharge the capacitor fully before handling. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, insulated needle-nose pliers, and a multimeter to verify discharge. Photograph all wiring connections before removal.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty on both components. Orders placed before cutoff ship same business day from our climate-controlled warehouse.

Compatibility: Engineered as the direct OEM replacement for the Payne PA13NR060000AAAA 5-ton R-410A split-system condenser. Always cross-reference the MFD rating and voltage printed on your existing capacitor's data label before installing. If you're unsure of fitment, our HVAC parts specialists verify compatibility before you order — no guesswork required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Capacitor fit my Payne PA13NR060000AAAA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the Payne PA13NR060000AAAA. 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 Payne PA13NR060000AAAA?
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 Payne 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 Payne 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?
