The Bard 8552-051BX is an OEM dual run capacitor rated 40/5 MFD at 440VAC in a compact 2-1/2 inch round body, used to support reliable starting and steady operation of the compressor and condenser fan motor in many Bard wall-mount air conditioner and heat pump units. When a weak capacitor causes hard starts, fan issues, or nuisance shutdowns, replacing it with the correct Bard-specified capacitance and voltage helps restore proper motor torque, smoother operation, and normal cooling performance. Verify the MFD ratings printed on your existing capacitor and confirm model compatibility before ordering to ensure proper fit and safe operation.
* Orders less than $50 may incure a minimum order fee.
Bard uses suffixes like "BX" to manage parts internally. These do not change the physical form or function of the part.
A part number ending in "BX" simply means it is packaged in a box for shipping, rather than for internal assembly use.
Example: 8406-142BX is physically identical to 8406-142.
