Carrier P291-5053RS Run Capacitor

Carrier P291-5053RS Run Capacitor

The Carrier P291-5053RS Run Capacitor is a high-performance 50/5 MFD 370V round dual run capacitor designed for demanding HVAC applications. As a genuine OEM replacement part, it ensures precise electrical characteristics for residential and commercial condensing units. This component is identical to part number 1172117, providing a direct-fit solution for technicians servicing Carrier, Bryant, and Payne equipment. The dual-rated 50/5 microfarad configuration supports both the compressor and the condenser fan motor, maintaining the necessary phase shift for optimal motor torque and efficiency. It is rated for 370Vac operation and 50/60Hz frequencies. When replacing a failed unit, verify the microfarad rating and physical dimensions, as this round-can model is built to withstand high internal pressures and thermal stress. Ensuring a match with the Carrier P291-5053RS specifications prevents premature motor winding failure and maintains the system's power factor under heavy cooling loads.

Key Benefits
  • Dual-Run Versatility: Consolidates compressor and fan motor support into a single 50+5 uF component to save space in the electrical cabinet.
  • OEM Compatibility: Guaranteed to meet original manufacturer specifications, serving as an exact replacement for 1172117.
  • Enhanced Reliability: Constructed to handle 370 volts, providing stable capacitance across a broad temperature range for outdoor condensers.
  • Standardized Housing: Features a round aluminum casing with standard 1/4-inch male quick-connect terminals for fast field installation.
Common Questions

Can I use a 440V capacitor to replace the P291-5053RS?
Yes, a 440V rated capacitor can safely replace a 370V dual run capacitor as it offers a higher dielectric strength, though the 50/5 MFD rating must remain identical.

How do I identify a failing run capacitor?
Look for physical signs such as a bulged top, leaking oil, or system symptoms like a humming compressor that fails to start or a fan motor that requires a manual push.

Is the P291-5053RS compatible with 50Hz systems?
Yes, this 50/5 microfarad capacitor is rated for both 50Hz and 60Hz AC frequencies, making it suitable for various international power standards.
