Bard 8552-051 Run Capacitor
The Bard 8552-051 is a high-performance 40/5 Microfarad 440Vac Round Dual Run Capacitor engineered specifically for technical professionals servicing Bard wall-mount air conditioners and heat pumps. This OEM-grade component is critical for phase-shifting the electrical supply to compressors and condenser fan motors, providing the necessary torque for reliable start-up and efficient continuous operation. Rated at 440VAC and 50/60Hz, this 2.5-inch round capacitor offers superior dielectric strength and thermal stability compared to lower-rated 370V alternatives, making it an essential replacement part for HVAC repair and preventative maintenance. When troubleshooting hard-start conditions or motor overheating in a Bard HVAC unit, restoring the precise 40/5 MFD capacitance ensures the system maintains optimal power factor correction. Built with a rugged aluminum casing and standard quad-blade quick-connect terminals, this dual run capacitor provides the durability needed to withstand high-vibration environments typical of commercial HVACR applications.
Key Benefits:- OEM Compatibility: Precision-engineered for Bard equipment, ensuring exact fitment and electrical alignment with original system specifications.
- Dual-Section Design: Houses both the 40 MFD (compressor) and 5 MFD (fan) sections in a single compact 2-1/2" round body for efficient enclosure management.
- Enhanced Voltage Rating: The 440VAC rating provides a robust safety margin, allowing it to replace 370V capacitors while offering better resistance to voltage spikes.
- Stable Performance: Designed to maintain tight tolerance levels across a wide operating temperature range, reducing the risk of motor "hum" or performance degradation.
- Can I use this 440V capacitor to replace a 370V capacitor? Yes, a higher voltage rating is always acceptable as long as the microfarad (MFD) ratings match the motor's requirements.
- What are the symptoms of a failing Bard 8552-051 capacitor? Look for a bulging top casing, a "humming" motor that fails to start, or intermittent cooling performance during peak thermal loads.
- How do I identify the correct terminals for installation? This dual run capacitor features three clearly labeled terminal posts: 'C' for Common, 'HERM' for the Hermetic Compressor (40 MFD), and 'FAN' for the Condenser Fan (5 MFD).
