Its compact round design fits standard mounts, and it comes with a 5-year durability guarantee, making it the smart, long-lasting choice for professional-grade HVAC maintenance. ## Description A capacitor is an electric component that temporarily stores an electrical charge. A dual "run capacitor" supports two electric motors, such as in large air conditioner or heat pump units, with both a fan motor and a compressor motor. It saves space by combining two physical capacitors into one case. The dual capacitor has three terminals labeled "C", "FAN", and "HERM", which stand for the *C*ommon, Fan, and *HERM*etically sealed compressor. Dual capacitors come in a variety of sizes, depending on the capacitance (µF or MFD), such as 40 plus 5 µF, and also the voltage. A 440 volt capacitor can be used in place of a 370 volt, as it is build better, but the 370 can’t be used in place of a 440 volt. It will work for a while and will fail prematurely, as exceeding the capacitor's rated voltage will cause the dielectric to break down and the capacitor to short out. Same as an electric wire- 600V rated wire is better than 300V one .The capacitance(µF or MFD) must be the same or stay within 10%+ or 5%- of its original value . Example: 50 µF cap can be substituted by 47.5 to 55 µF with the same or better voltage ratings capacitor . Round cylinder-shaped dual run capacitors are commonly used for air conditioning, to help in the starting of the compressor and the condenser fan motor.Round capacitor can be used to substitute oval shape one with the same MFD AND Volt specs You will ask “Why I need a Cap that is rated 440V in my A/C?” Answer: You need to realize that a motor is an inductive device. When the supply voltage is applied to the motor run winding, the voltage across the start winding will be increased to a higher voltage value. A motor acts like a transformer with the run winding acting as the primary and the start winding acting as the secondary. This is why the capacitor has a much higher voltage rating than the 230 being the supply voltage. If a Capacitor is not EIA-456-A approved means it is not approved for US market. Review: Works well, sized to my original running cap - Out of the box, I measured capacitance to be 44.5uF which is well within the 5% tolerance (98.89% or 1.11% off depending on how you want to view it). I've replaced my existing with a few others and they've always been smaller so it would slip right through the capacitor holding bracket. Those I just left the cap sitting on the platform while it was still inside the bracket. This was sized to the original so I was actually able to use the holding bracket by loosing the screw, inserting this capacitor, then tightening the screw so the capacitor is only held by the bracket and is off the platform. Easily hooked up and fan came right on when I re-inserted the switch at the disconnect. I am hoping it will last the expected 5 years - will try to remember to update this post for when it fails. Review: Exact replacement part to repair my A/C - Good price for the exact part that I needed to repair my A/C Arrived at my home very quickly. ## Features - 45+5 uf or 45+5 MFD 440 Volt AC Capacitor.

Capacitors work like batteries on start-up of the motor where extra electrical energy assists the unit in overcoming the latency of the motor to start. Capacitors charge at different times depending on capacity. Typically it uses 5 time constants for a capacitor to charge and discharge. All this means that a small cap will charge faster than a large one but means little to the user if they are not using it as some part of a timing circuit. The Booster Supco Cap adds extra energy on startup so the unit gets that extra electrical push. This is a very simplified answer to a somewhat lengthy Study of CAPs in EE courses and how they are used and work. **Q: Where do I buy the wires to hook it up? I can't splice on the terminals myself** A: The wires are already on the condenser unit... If you have a separate capacitor for fan don't use that terminal or vice versa **Q: would this fit C3455R?Thanks** A: No. PowerWell 45+5 is 2 3/8” Genteq C3455R is 2” **Q: Dose it fit trane xl16i 4ttx6048?** A: If your your system issue is the compressor does not start once called and the fan does the you have a capacitor problem. Validate the capacitance in your system; 45uf for the compressor and 5uf for the fan then this product will work. The strap and connector is standard. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well, sized to my original running cap *by K***I on 7 June 2026* Out of the box, I measured capacitance to be 44.5uF which is well within the 5% tolerance (98.89% or 1.11% off depending on how you want to view it).

Replaced the capacitor with this one, as all the numbers matched up. AC now running perfect. Pull the disconnect outside, remove the cover on the condensor (corner cover, not the whole thing) take a pic of where the wires connect, install new capacitor, reinstall the power disconnect and enjoy your cold house, knowing you saved yourself about 400 bucks. Good time to clean the evaporator and condensor! ## Frequently Bought Together - PowerWell 45+5 MFD 45/5 uf 370 or 440 Volt Dual Run Round Capacitor PW-45/5/R for Condenser Straight Cool or Heat Pump Air Conditioner - Guaranteed to Last 5 Years - BOJACK 1 Poles FLA 30 Amp Coil 24 VAC Air Conditioner Condenser Compressor Contactor AC Definite Purpose Contactor - VEXUNGA AC Capacitor 45+5 uF 45/5 MFD 370 or 440 or 450 VAC CBB65B Dual Run Start Capacitors for Air Conditioner Compacitor Motor or Compressor Fan or Condenser Straight Cool --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/717597545-45-5-mfd-45-5-uf-370-or-440-volt](https://www.desertcart.be/products/717597545-45-5-mfd-45-5-uf-370-or-440-volt) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-09-15*
