Mars 12715 – Jard by Mars 25 MFD, 370V Round Motor Run Capacitor
The Mars 12715 is a single-value, oil-filled round run capacitor rated at 25 microfarads and 370 volts AC. This component is commonly installed in single-phase HVAC systems to support continuous-duty motors such as compressors and fans. The capacitor is constructed with a metallized polypropylene film dielectric, sealed in an aluminum case with a pressure-sensitive interrupter for safety.
Designed for 50/60 Hz operation, it is suitable for indoor or protected outdoor environments and meets applicable industry standards for endurance and thermal performance. Its compact form factor supports general replacement applications across a wide range of residential and light commercial HVAC equipment.
