Bard 8552-048BX - Dual run capacitor 35/5 MFD 370V

Bard 8552-048BX is an OEM dual run capacitor rated 35/5 MFD at 370V, used to provide the correct phase shift and stable starting and running support for the compressor and condenser fan motor in compatible Bard wall mount air conditioners and packaged HVAC units. A weak or failing run capacitor can cause hard starts, overheated motors, nuisance shutdowns, or a compressor that will not stay running, so replacing it with the correct microfarad rating and voltage is essential for reliable operation. This boxed capacitor is the official replacement for Bard part 8552-048; confirm your unit model and wiring before installation, discharge the old capacitor safely, and match terminals exactly to restore proper performance and protect the motor and compressor.

What does the "BX" suffix mean?

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.
