OEM Payne Dual Run & Start Capacitor Set for Model PA3ANA060000BBAA

This factory-matched capacitor kit includes both the OEM Dual Run Capacitor (P291-7073RS) and Start Capacitor (P281-1766) specified for the Payne PA3ANA060000BBAA 5-ton split-system air conditioner. The dual run capacitor maintains continuous electrical charge to both the compressor and condenser fan motor during operation, while the start capacitor delivers the extra surge of energy needed to kick the compressor into motion. When either component fails, symptoms include a loud hum with no motor movement, a system that trips the breaker immediately, short-cycling within the first few minutes of operation, or a condenser fan that spins only when manually assisted.

  • Specs: P291-7073RS — Dual Run Capacitor, 440V rated, round case, factory ±3% MFD tolerance | P281-1766 — Start Capacitor, matched to PA3ANA060000BBAA compressor start requirements | Both rated for R-410A system operating pressures and ambient temperatures
  • OEM vs Generic: OEM capacitors are manufactured to Payne/ICP factory specifications. Aftermarket alternatives frequently operate at ±10% MFD tolerance, placing excess strain on the compressor windings and condenser fan motor bearings — shortening equipment life and potentially voiding compressor warranties.
  • Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Always disconnect power at the breaker and discharge the capacitor fully before handling any terminals. Tools needed: 1/4" and 5/16" nut drivers, insulated needle-nose pliers, multimeter with capacitance mode. Photograph all wiring connections before removal. Start capacitor wiring varies — confirm terminal labeling (HERM, FAN, COM) before reconnecting.
  • Warranty & Shipping: Backed by a 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects. In stock and ships same business day from our HVAC parts warehouse.

Compatibility: Engineered as direct OEM replacements for the Payne PA3ANA060000BBAA 5-ton split-system condenser. Always verify capacitor MFD and voltage ratings against your unit's data plate before installation. Not sure if this is the right fit? Our HVAC parts specialists confirm fitment before you order — reach out before purchasing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Capacitor fit my Payne PA3ANA060000BBAA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the Payne PA3ANA060000BBAA. 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 PA3ANA060000BBAA?
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.
