About the Mars JARD Motor Run Capacitor, 40/3 MFD, Dual Section 440/370 Volt Round, (12978)
Shop the Mars 12978 Dual Motor Run Capacitor, 40/3 MFD, 440V, Round with the experts at PlumbersStock. Motor run capacitors alter the current, creating a rotating magnetic field in single-phase induction motors. The beauty of a dual motor run capacitor is that it can support two motors because it houses two capacitors in one body. JARD by Mars is a series of quality, low-cost alternative capacitors. The initials MFD stand for Microfarad (a millionth of a Farad), which is a measurement of the capacitor's capacity.
Mars is known for engineering innovation and practical solutions. As the manufacturer describes it, Dual section run capacitors are used primarily to serve two microfarad applications. They can, however, by making various combinations of parallel connections, be used to obtain many other microfarad ratings.
