The old capacitor was very swollen and looked like a soda can that had been repeatedly shaken up. Be sure to write down which wires go to what terminal on your capacitor before removing the old one or just take a few pictures. For home air conditioning systems that use dual run capacitors they will have 3 terminals. The terminal labeled "HERM" is for the yellow wire that goes to the "Hermetically Sealed" compressor. The "FAN" terminal gets connected to the brown wire that goes to the condenser fan. Finally the "COM" terminal is for the purple and red wires that go to the contactor and provide power to the capacitor.
I am going to assume that the capacitor in question has one uf or mfd rating and the one you want to use has two such as: 30+7.5uf if so then yet as long as you hook to the terminals that supply the same uf as the oem capacitor. The terminal marked HERM will be the terminal that has the highest of the two uf ratings. hope this helps!!
The C represents the capacitance (in farads) of the capacitor. It is a measure of how much charge a capacitor can hold. This is needed to know how much energy the capacitor is holding.
Because reactance of capacitor is inversly proportional to the frequency i.e- Xc=1/(2*pie*f*c) where f is frequency and c is capacitance of capacitor.
If you mean the capacity of the capacitor then, Factors are:- Area of of overlap of the plates Separation of the plates How good is the insulating material between the plates (the dielectric) If you mean how large a charge can be stored then, Factors are:- The capacitance of the capacitor (C). The applied voltage (V). Charge Q =CxV V cannot exceed the dielectric's breakdown voltage.
The capacitor size of a Rheem A/C model RAKA-042JAS is height 2 1/8 inches, width 2 3/16 inches, and depth 1 5/16 inches. As of 2013, the price of a Rheem A/C run capacitor is $11.87, plus tax and shipping.

The A/C fan may not be spinning due to a malfunction in the motor, a broken belt, or a faulty capacitor. It is important to have a professional inspect and repair the fan to ensure proper functioning of the air conditioning system.
The C represents the capacitance (in farads) of the capacitor. It is a measure of how much charge a capacitor can hold. This is needed to know how much energy the capacitor is holding.
The potential difference formula for a capacitor is V Q/C, where V is the potential difference (voltage), Q is the charge stored on the capacitor, and C is the capacitance of the capacitor.
Capacitor (a passive electronic component). Or Coulomb (unit of electric charge).
The energy stored in a capacitor can be calculated using the formula: E 0.5 C V2, where E is the energy stored, C is the capacitance of the capacitor, and V is the voltage across the capacitor.
The energy stored in a capacitor can be calculated using the formula: E 0.5 C V2, where E is the energy stored, C is the capacitance of the capacitor, and V is the voltage across the capacitor.
The energy stored in a capacitor can be found using the formula: E 0.5 C V2, where E is the energy stored, C is the capacitance of the capacitor, and V is the voltage across the capacitor.
The fan motor is bad. The fan motor capacitor may also be the problem. First, an amperage test should be done on the motor to see if its exceeding the rated amps. Secondly, the capacitor should be tested for the amount of microfarads it has. If its an old mtor, it should be replaced, along with the capacitor. All of this should be done by a licensed A/C contractor!
To calculate the potential difference across a capacitor, you can use the formula V Q/C, where V is the potential difference, Q is the charge stored on the capacitor, and C is the capacitance of the capacitor.
The potential difference across a capacitor can be determined by using the formula V Q/C, where V is the potential difference, Q is the charge stored on the capacitor, and C is the capacitance of the capacitor.
Because reactance of capacitor is inversly proportional to the frequency i.e- Xc=1/(2*pie*f*c) where f is frequency and c is capacitance of capacitor.
