Bard part 8552-049 is an OEM dual run capacitor rated 35/5 MFD at 440V in a 2-1/2 inch round configuration, commonly used to provide the correct phase shift and starting torque for the compressor and condenser fan motor in Bard wall mount and packaged HVAC equipment. When a capacitor weakens, you may see hard starts, humming, fan issues, or compressor shutoffs, so replacing it with the correct microfarad and voltage rating is critical for reliable operation. Match the 35/5 MFD rating to your unit requirements and verify wiring placement at the labeled terminals before restoring power to help ensure proper fit and safe, factory-correct performance.
