Description
The Bard HVAC 8552-004BX is a genuine OEM replacement run capacitor engineered to maintain consistent motor performance in Bard heating and cooling systems. Rated at 7.5 MFD (microfarads) and 370 volts, this capacitor provides the precise electrical boost needed to keep fan motors and compressors running efficiently and reliably throughout every season.
Why Capacitors Matter
Run capacitors are a critical component in single-phase HVAC motors. They maintain a continuous phase shift in the motor’s start winding, improving torque, efficiency, and overall motor longevity. A failing capacitor can cause motors to run hot, draw excess current, or fail to start entirely — making timely replacement essential to system uptime.
