MARS 12895 Run Capacitor
When you're out on a service call and find a compressor struggling to turn over or a condenser fan motor humming without rotation, the MARS 12895 Run Capacitor is a reliable truck-stock essential for HVAC motor troubleshooting. This 60/5 MFD 370V Dual Run Capacitor is engineered to handle the split-phase requirements of both the compressor and the fan motor simultaneously. Built to EIA 456A standards, it features non-PCB oil and a physical pressure-sensitive interrupter for enhanced field safety, preventing case rupture during end-of-life failure. As a U.L. and C.S.A. recognized component, it offers a direct 60+5 uF 370Vac replacement for aging round dual run capacitors in residential and light commercial condensing units. Use this HVAC capacitor replacement to restore system SEER efficiency and ensure proper phase shift for induction motors operating in high-ambient environments up to 70°C.
Key Technical Benefits- Dual-Section Versatility: Directs 60 MFD to the Hermetic compressor and 5 MFD to the fan motor with precision +/- 6% tolerance.
- Enhanced Safety: Includes an internal pressure-sensitive interrupter (PSI) to disconnect the capacitor if internal pressure exceeds safe limits.
- Rugged Construction: Features 4-spade quick-connect terminals and an aluminum case designed for continuous 50/60Hz duty cycles.
- Broad Compatibility: Replaces common industry parts including Genteq C3605R, Supco CD60+5X370R, and JARD 12895.
Can I use a 440V capacitor to replace this 370V model?
Yes, you can always upgrade the voltage rating (e.g., using a 440V unit in place of a 370V), but never downsize it, as it will lead to immediate dielectric breakdown.
What is the cause of a bulging capacitor case?
Physical swelling usually indicates an internal short or massive overheating, often caused by power surges or a failing motor drawing excessive current. The PSI in this MARS unit is designed to trip under these conditions.
Why is the 60/5 MFD rating so common in newer 14+ SEER units?
Higher efficiency compressors require more start-up and running torque assistance from the run capacitor to maintain the power factor and reduce total amperage draw.
