Description
The Rheem-Ruud AP17967 Single Round Capacitor 12.5 MFD 370V is a motor-run component used to support the continuous operation of fan and compressor motors in HVAC systems. It is used in air conditioning units, heat pumps and air handlers where it helps maintain the phase shift required for efficient motor performance during normal running conditions. It is mounted inside or outside condenser cabinets or indoor air-handling equipment and remains electrically engaged while the system operates. It operates as an energy storage component that controls motor torque, improves efficiency, and supports consistent airflow and refrigeration cycle operation throughout heating.
