A motor capacitor, such as a start capacitor or run capacitor, including a dual run capacitor, is an electrical capacitor that alters the current to one or more windings of a single phase AC induction motor to create a rotating magnetic field. It is used in air conditioners, hot tub/jacuzzi spa pumps, or forced air heat furnaces for example.
A round dual run capacitor is used in some air conditioner compressor units, to boost both the fan and compressor motors.
Run capacitors are mostly polypropylene film capacitors and are designed for continuous duty, and they are energized the entire time the motor is running.
Run capacitors are rated in a range of 1.5–100 microfarads (µF or mfd), Single phase electric motors need a capacitor to energize a second-phase winding.
If the wrong run capacitor is installed, the motor will not have an even magnetic field, and this will cause the rotor to hesitate at those spots that are uneven.
This hesitation can cause the motor to become noisy, increase energy consumption, cause performance to drop, and cause the motor to overheat.
