Application
The CPT2522 is intended for use as a run capacitor on Trane compressor motors. Run capacitors remain energized throughout the compressor’s operating cycle, improving power factor and motor efficiency. Always verify your existing capacitor’s MFD rating and voltage before replacement to ensure proper system operation.
Installation Notes
- Discharge the old capacitor fully before removal — capacitors can retain a dangerous charge even after power is disconnected
- Match the MFD rating exactly; voltage rating may be equal to or higher than the original
- Consult your equipment’s wiring diagram for correct terminal connections
- Installation should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician
