A single can serves both the compressor (55 MFD) and the condenser fan motor (5 MFD), so it is a common single-part replacement when the capacitor in a split-system air conditioner or heat pump weakens or fails.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e55\/5 MFD dual capacitance: 55 MFD for the compressor (HERM), 5 MFD for the fan motor (FAN)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e370\/440 VAC rating for replacing 370V or 440V units of matching capacitance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRound case with metal spade (quick-connect) terminals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConfirm case diameter and terminal layout against your original before installing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMitco Manufacturing part number DCAPR555, UPC 663121037272\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMitco\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eMitco Part #\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDCAPR555\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDual run capacitor, round case\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eCapacitance\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e55 MFD (compressor) \/ 5 MFD (fan)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eVoltage Rating\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e370\/440 VAC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eTerminals\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMetal spade\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eUPC\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e663121037272\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eResidential and light-commercial split-system air conditioners and heat pumps where the outdoor unit uses a single dual run capacitor for the compressor and condenser fan motor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat do the numbers 55\/5 MFD mean on a dual run capacitor?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA dual run capacitor is two capacitors in one case. The 55 MFD section serves the compressor (HERM terminal) and the 5 MFD section serves the condenser fan motor (FAN terminal). The C terminal is the common.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow do I know if my dual run capacitor has failed?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCommon signs are a bulged or leaking case, a compressor that hums but will not start, a condenser fan that will not spin without a push, and a capacitance meter reading well outside tolerance.
