Utica-Dunkirk 240002062 Run Capacitor
Proper motor phase shift is critical for the induction motors found in Utica and Dunkirk heating systems. The Utica-Dunkirk 240002062 Run Capacitor is a 2.5MFD 370V oval run capacitor designed specifically to maintain the precise torque and current required for residential and light commercial HVAC blowers and fans. Built with high-grade metallized polypropylene film and housed in a durable aluminum casing, this component ensures the electrical stability of the motor winding, preventing premature winding failure and excessive heat buildup.
For technicians performing a service call, this 2.5 microfarad capacitor serves as an exact OEM replacement, ensuring physical compatibility with the existing mounting brackets and wire leads. While many universal capacitors are rated at 440V, using the factory-spec 370V HVAC capacitor ensures your system operates within its original engineering parameters. This part is tested to meet UL 810 safety standards, including internal pressure interruption to prevent ruptures at the end of its service life.
- 2.5MFD ±5% Tolerance: Provides the exact capacitance needed for consistent motor torque.
- 370VAC Rating: Optimized for standard residential HVAC control circuits and fan motors.
- Oval Form Factor: Fits tight enclosures where round alternatives may interfere with other components.
- Industrial Build Quality: Features non-PCB oil and 1/4-inch quick-connect terminals for a secure electrical connection.
Common Questions
Can I use a 440V capacitor to replace this 370V unit?
Yes, in a professional application, a higher voltage rating is acceptable as long as the 2.5MFD capacitance remains identical. However, the physical dimensions of higher voltage capacitors are often larger, so check your cabinet clearance before installation.
What are the signs that my 240002062 capacitor is failing?
Look for a bulging top casing, oil leaks, or a humming motor that fails to start. Testing with a multimeter should show a reading within 5% of the 2.5MFD rating; anything outside this range requires immediate replacement to avoid motor damage.
Does this part work with all Utica boilers?
The 240002062 is a common part for several Utica and Dunkirk furnace and boiler models. Always verify the part number against your specific unit’s service manual or the label on the original capacitor.
