Product Lines

Titan Pro Single Motor Run Capacitors

Titan Pro single motor run capacitors are designed for single-motor applications in residential HVAC, including condenser fan motors that require a dedicated capacitor separate from the compressor starting and run circuit. Titan Pro single capacitors are available in both round and oval enclosure configurations and in capacitance values ranging from the low microfarad ratings used for smaller fan motors through the higher values used in larger compressor applications. Both 370V and 440V voltage ratings are available in the single capacitor line, with 440V being the appropriate specification for most modern residential HVAC equipment where higher voltage tolerance provides margin against voltage spikes. Single Titan Pro capacitors can be used in any application where the OEM equipment uses separate fan and compressor capacitors rather than a combined dual capacitor.

Titan Pro Dual Motor Run Capacitors

Titan Pro dual motor run capacitors combine separate capacitance values for the compressor motor and condenser fan motor in a single three-terminal capacitor housing, matching the dual capacitor configuration used in most modern residential split systems and heat pumps. Titan Pro dual capacitors are available in the common capacitance value pairings used in residential HVAC equipment, typically expressed as the compressor value plus the fan value in microfarads, in both 370V and 440V voltage ratings. The round or oval enclosure configuration must match the original equipment mounting bracket type to avoid the need for a bracket adapter in the equipment cabinet. Replacing an OEM dual capacitor with a Titan Pro dual capacitor of the correct capacitance and voltage rating is a direct substitution that does not require rewiring the equipment.

Titan Pro Oval Capacitors

Titan Pro oval motor run capacitors serve HVAC equipment where the original capacitor mounting uses a strap bracket designed for the oval form factor rather than the snap-in or post-mount bracket used for round capacitors. Oval Titan Pro capacitors are available in both single and dual configurations and cover the same capacitance and voltage range as the round Titan Pro line. The oval configuration is commonly found in older residential HVAC equipment from certain manufacturers and in some commercial package unit applications. Technicians replacing oval capacitors should confirm whether the original capacitor is oval due to mounting requirements or simply due to original equipment design, as some bracket adapters can allow round capacitors to be substituted for oval mounting configurations.

Why Contractors Specify Titan Pro

Titan Pro capacitors are rated for 60,000 hours of operational life, a specification verified by Packard and published in the Titan Pro product documentation. The 60,000-hour rating represents a meaningful improvement over standard motor run capacitors in extended high-cycle service environments, which is the normal operating condition for residential HVAC equipment in hot-summer climates. Titan Pro is available in both 370V and 440V voltage ratings, with 440V providing additional voltage tolerance above the nominal operating range of residential HVAC equipment. The dual capacitor configuration matches the most common residential HVAC equipment design, reducing the number of SKUs a service van needs to carry for typical residential capacitor replacement work. Packard's Titan brand encompasses three series, including Titan HD for applications requiring American-made premium capacitors and Titan FX for mini-split systems, allowing HVAC service departments to source all capacitor needs from a consistent brand.

How to Choose a Titan Pro Product

The most important decision variable when selecting a Titan Pro capacitor is capacitance value match: the replacement capacitor must exactly match the original equipment's capacitance rating in microfarads. Using a capacitor with the wrong capacitance value will cause motor overheating, reduced efficiency, or premature motor failure, regardless of the voltage rating or brand of the replacement.

For dual capacitors, the capacitance pairing (compressor value plus fan value, in microfarads) must match the original equipment. Common residential dual capacitor pairings include 35+5, 45+5, 55+5, and similar combinations. The capacitance values are printed on the OEM capacitor label and should be matched exactly with the Titan Pro dual capacitor selected as the replacement.

Voltage rating: Titan Pro capacitors are available in 370V and 440V ratings. A 440V Titan Pro capacitor may be substituted in a 370V application for additional voltage tolerance, but a 370V capacitor should not be used in an application rated for 440V. Most modern residential HVAC equipment specifies 440V capacitors.

Form factor: the round or oval enclosure must match the equipment's mounting bracket design, or a bracket adapter must be used. Confirm the original capacitor's form factor from the nameplate or the equipment's parts documentation before ordering a Titan Pro replacement.

For mini-split systems, the Titan FX multi-rated series is the more appropriate Titan specification, as mini-split systems often require capacitors that accommodate multiple equipment brands with variable capacitance and voltage ratings in a single footprint.

FAQs

Where are Titan Pro capacitors manufactured?

Titan Pro capacitors are manufactured by Packard, a manufacturer of HVAC electrical components and replacement parts. For information about specific manufacturing locations for the Titan Pro line, contractors can contact Packard directly at packardonline.com.

What warranty does Titan Pro offer on its motor run capacitors?

Titan Pro warranty terms are available through Packard at packardonline.com and through authorized distributors. Contractors should request current warranty documentation for the specific Titan Pro capacitor being specified.

What is the difference between Titan Pro and Titan HD capacitors?

The difference between Titan Pro and Titan HD is manufacturing origin and application tier. Titan Pro is the standard Packard capacitor line with a 60,000-hour rated operational life in 370V and 440V configurations. Titan HD is the American-made premium capacitor line in the Packard Titan series, designed for applications where domestic manufacturing origin and premium construction are specified. Both lines serve residential and light-commercial HVAC compressor and fan motor applications.

What capacitance value should I use when replacing an HVAC capacitor with Titan Pro?

The replacement Titan Pro capacitor must match the original equipment's capacitance value exactly, expressed in microfarads (MFD or uF). The capacitance value is printed on the original capacitor's label. Using a higher or lower capacitance value than specified by the equipment manufacturer can cause motor overheating, reduced efficiency, or premature motor failure. Voltage rating should match or exceed the original: 440V Titan Pro may substitute for a 370V original, but not the reverse.

Are Titan Pro dual capacitors compatible with all residential HVAC systems?

Titan Pro dual capacitors are compatible with residential HVAC systems that use a dual motor run capacitor configuration combining compressor and fan motor capacitance in a single three-terminal housing. Compatibility requires matching the capacitance value pairing, voltage rating, and form factor (round or oval) to the original equipment specification. Systems that use separate single capacitors for the compressor and fan motor are not compatible with dual capacitor replacements.

What is the difference between Titan Pro and Titan FX capacitors?

The difference between Titan Pro and Titan FX is the target application. Titan Pro is designed for standard residential split systems, heat pumps, and package units using conventional single or dual motor run capacitor configurations. Titan FX is a multi-rated capacitor designed specifically for mini-split air conditioners, where the equipment may require a capacitor that covers multiple capacitance and voltage options in a single physical form factor. Titan FX is the appropriate Packard Titan specification for ductless mini-split systems.
