Mars 12786 – Jard by Mars 40/5 MFD, 440V Dual Section Round Motor Run Capacitor
The Mars 12786 is a dual-section motor run capacitor rated at 40 and 5 microfarads (MFD) with a voltage rating of 440 VAC. This capacitor is designed for continuous-duty operation in HVAC systems that use permanent split capacitor (PSC) motors, supporting both compressor and fan motor circuits with a single component.
Constructed with metallized polypropylene film and enclosed in a round aluminum case, the unit is oil-filled, hermetically sealed, and equipped with a pressure-sensitive interrupter. Its non-PCB design meets UL and RoHS compliance standards, making it suitable for use in residential and light commercial systems.
Technical Specifications

Voltage Rating: 440 VAC
Frequency: 50/60 Hz
Dielectric: Metallized polypropylene film
Enclosure: Round aluminum can
Construction: Oil-filled, hermetically sealed, non-PCB
Safety Feature: Pressure-sensitive internal interrupter
Operating Temp Range: -40°C to +70°C
Terminals: Dual ¼" male quick-connects
Case Height: Approx. 3-7/8 in.
Diameter: Approx. 2 in.
Certifications: UL recognized, RoHS compliant
Application Notes
For dual motor circuits in PSC air conditioning and heat pump systems
Designed to simultaneously operate both fan and compressor motors
Compatible with standard HVAC mounting configurations
Matches equipment requiring 40/5 MFD, 440V rating for service replacement
Installation Guidelines
Disconnect all power and discharge the capacitor before installation
Confirm that capacitance and voltage match system requirements
Install securely using appropriate brackets or clamps
Ensure proper lead connection and terminal fitment
Installation should be performed by trained personnel to meet electrical safety standards
