Description
The Bard HVAC 8552-005BX is an OEM replacement run capacitor engineered to deliver consistent, reliable performance in Bard HVAC equipment. Rated at 10 MFD (microfarads) and 370 volts, this capacitor provides the precise electrical boost required to keep motors running efficiently and at proper torque. The compact 1-1/4″ outer diameter housing makes it a direct-fit replacement, minimizing installation time and ensuring a clean, secure fit in the original equipment cabinet.
Run capacitors are a critical component in single-phase motors found in air conditioners, heat pumps, and packaged HVAC units. A failed or degraded capacitor can cause motors to draw excessive current, overheat, or fail to start entirely. Replacing a worn capacitor with the correct OEM-specified part — like the Bard 8552-005BX — restores proper motor operation and helps extend the life of compressors and fan motors.
