Rheem-Ruud 43-26271-46 Dual Run Capacitor 40/10 MFD 370 VAC Round

The Rheem-Ruud 43-26271-46 is a dual run capacitor designed for HVAC applications requiring two capacitance values in a single unit. This round capacitor provides 40 MFD and 10 MFD capacitance ratings at 370 volts AC, making it suitable for residential and light commercial air conditioning and heat pump systems.

Key Specifications:

• Primary capacitance: 40 microfarads (MFD)
• Secondary capacitance: 10 microfarads (MFD)
• Voltage rating: 370 VAC
• Round metal housing for durability
• Genuine Rheem-Ruud OEM replacement part
• Three-terminal configuration for compressor and fan motor applications

Dual run capacitors are essential components in HVAC systems, providing the necessary electrical phase shift to start and run both the compressor and fan motor efficiently. This capacitor is engineered to meet Rheem-Ruud's quality standards and is designed as a direct replacement for the original equipment. The 40/10 MFD rating indicates this capacitor supports a larger compressor load (40 MFD) and a smaller fan motor load (10 MFD), typical in split-system air conditioners and heat pumps.

Installation Note: Always discharge capacitors before handling and ensure power is disconnected. Capacitors should be replaced with identical MFD and voltage ratings for proper system operation.
