OEM Payne Single Run Capacitor for Model PA2PEB048000AB

This is the factory-specified OEM single run capacitor for the Payne PA2PEB048000AB split-system air conditioner. A single run capacitor provides the continuous electrical charge needed to keep either the compressor or the condenser fan motor running at peak efficiency. When this component fails, you'll typically notice symptoms like a humming condenser with no motor movement, the system tripping the breaker shortly after startup, or the unit running hot and shutting off prematurely on thermal overload. OEM part numbers P291-0753 and P291-1503 are both factory-authorized replacements for this model, covering different MFD ratings — verify your unit's data plate before ordering.

  • Specs: Single run capacitor | 370V or 440V rated (confirm on data plate) | Round or oval case | Factory-matched MFD tolerance ±3% for precise motor performance
  • OEM vs Generic: OEM capacitors from Payne (an ICP/Carrier family brand) are manufactured to exact factory tolerances. Aftermarket units frequently carry a ±10% MFD tolerance, which accelerates motor winding wear and can shorten compressor service life significantly.
  • Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Always discharge the capacitor fully before removing terminals — stored voltage can exceed 300V even with power off. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, insulated needle-nose pliers, multimeter with capacitance function. Photograph all wiring connections before disconnecting.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects. Orders placed before cutoff ship the same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Designed for the Payne PA2PEB048000AB 4-ton split-system condenser. Cross-references OEM part numbers P291-0753 and P291-1503. Always confirm the MFD rating and voltage printed on your existing capacitor or unit data plate before ordering — both part numbers serve this model at different capacitance values.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Capacitor fit my Payne PA2PEB048000AB?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the Payne PA2PEB048000AB. 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 PA2PEB048000AB?
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?
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.
