You might be able to but why you would want to is questionable. A capacitor could be used in air-con for two reasons. First to start the pump motor if it is a single-phase induction motor. Secondly, as a power-factor corrector. In both cases the two capacitors have probably been correctly selected and there is no point in using a different one.
A replacement capacitor should have the correct voltage rating and the correct VAR rating (or the right capacitance in microfarads).
If the air conditioner has both, the run capacitor is likely the largest one. The start capacitor will only be in the circuit for a very short time, so overheating doesn't become an issue. The run capacitor must be sized for continual use.
And air capacitor is usually a motion capacitor whereby plates mesh to form a different capacitance using air as dielectric
The cost of installing a central air conditioner depends on the unit as well as the size of your house. It can cost you anywhere from $1,500 to $1,5000.
The cable size is : 4*25 mm2
An air conditioner if functioning as air warmer or air chiller can be called as a type of heat pump. If an air conditioner is working as an air de-humidifier then it no more a heat pump.
Function of Capacitor in Air Conditioner:Compressor Motor Capacitor: This air conditioning capacitor usually consists of two capacitors that are combined. This vital capacitor gets the motor running in the air conditioning unit.Start Capacitor: This capacitor provides auxiliary support and that is not a standard on every air conditioning unit. It can give the motor a boost to get it started.Indoor Blower Motor Capacitor: This capacitor is self-explanatory. It is responsible for starting the indoor-blower-motor and keeping it running efficiently.Outdoor Fan Motor Capacitor: The name says it all for this capacitor. It starts the outdoor fan and keeps the air flowing through the coils that run on the outside of an air conditioner.

Not likely
Air conditioner capacitors may be purchased from appliance-parts retailers. There are many with web sites.
you don't say if it is turning. ??? Replace the starting capacitor.
It could be that the capacitor is going bad or the bearings in the motor.
Yes. Can blow capacitor, contactor or ground compressor.

Central of course because it is larger.
If the air conditioner has both, the run capacitor is likely the largest one. The start capacitor will only be in the circuit for a very short time, so overheating doesn't become an issue. The run capacitor must be sized for continual use.
the capacitor starts the compressor generally if it don t work the compressor usually won t start
Depending on the make and model of the air conditioner. It is probably your blower motor. There are two, possibly three items to consider. The motor, the start capacitor and the run capacitor. Some systems will have just the motor and the start capacitor. Some have just the motor and the run capacitor. Usually (not always) the capacitor will show physical signs of failure. Burned terminals, swelling or white stuff coming out of the top. Expect to pay $30 for the capacitors and several hundred for a new blower motor.
