The Mars 12214 Round Run Capacitor 20 MFD 370V is an electrical component that controls the voltage and provides constant phase in motors of HVAC systems. It accumulates and discharges electrical energy such that the current flow to the blower and condenser fan motor is constant to enhance the starting torque and minimize variability. Packaged units, split systems and rooftop air conditioners have the capacitor mounted in a compartment and are connected to the motor run circuit. It applies sustained airflow and constant temperature control in residential and commercial HVAC systems through the smoothing of electrical load and enhancing motor efficiency.
