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

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.

Our HVAC system started having trouble cooling the house. When I checked it, I noticed the fan on the unit was running slowly. I did some research and found that the issue could be the capacitor, the fan, or both. I inspected the unit and confirmed that the part number for the capacitor was E229850, then used that information to find a replacement. The installation was not too difficult, and now the HVAC runs like new. The only thing worth noting is that this capacitor has a slightly larger diameter, despite having the same rating as the old one. So be aware that you may need to mount it differently.

This capacitor is the real deal and for the price I don't know how it can be beat. The capacitor has a 5 year guarantee that it will work. I installed my first one in June 2020 and it just fell below the acceptable level where it needs to be replaced. It hasn't completely failed but don't want to risk damaging the fan motor if I did wait until it completely failed. It ran almost every day for 6 years in Midwest temperatures of over 100 in the summer (AC) and minus 30 below in the winter (heat pump) at times. Replacing them myself has saved me over $800 vs. a technician.

Fantastic deal. Saved me hundreds from an HVAC call. Fixed my AC.

This power well capacitor worked properly and helped restore performance to the AC or heat pump system. After installation, the unit started and ran more consistently without hesitation. The build quality feels solid for a replacement component. Installation should be handled carefully if working around electrical systems, but overall it’s a dependable part that solved the issue effectively.

Excellent product perfect for for my heatpump easy to install.

Easy to replace. It was the same size as the original one. Everything was compatible and unit and fan came back on after replacing. Sorry didn’t get a picture or video.

Fixed our air conditioner in 5 minutes would have cost us hundreds very easy to install, just take a picture of the unit and compare, it’s okay if it’s bigger than original part

Installé depuis plus de 12 mois et ce condensateur fonctionne très bien

Good price for the exact part that I needed to repair my A/C Arrived at my home very quickly.

Worked perfectly and easy to install

I installed it but i still having motor issues.!

Very happy with this purchase
