Product Overview
Aaon P5130B Run Capacitor
The AAON P5130B is a 15 MFD, 370 VAC oval run capacitor used to provide the continuous capacitance required by a compatible HVAC motor while it operates. This OEM replacement component is specified for AAON HVAC equipment that calls for part P5130B and a 50/60 Hz run capacitor; confirm the required part number, capacitance, voltage, and housing shape against the unit documentation or existing component before ordering.

FAQs:
Q: What are the electrical specifications of the AAON P5130B run capacitor?
A: The AAON P5130B is an oval motor run capacitor rated at 15 MFD, 370 VAC, and 50/60 Hz. These values should match the equipment documentation and the specified replacement part before purchase.
Q: Is AAON P5130B the replacement for AAON P51300?
A: Yes. Multiple parts distributors identify P5130B as the replacement for the former or obsolete AAON P51300 capacitor. Confirm the supersession through the unit parts list or AAON parts support if the equipment configuration is uncertain.
Q: Will the AAON P5130B capacitor fit my AAON HVAC unit?
A: The P5130B is appropriate only when the unit documentation or existing verified part specification calls for P5130B, or when P51300 has been confirmed as the superseded number. Confirm the equipment model and serial number along with the required 15 MFD rating, 370 VAC rating, 50/60 Hz frequency, and oval configuration before ordering.
Q: What does the AAON P5130B run capacitor do?
A: The P5130B provides run capacitance for a compatible motor circuit while the HVAC motor is operating. It is a run capacitor rather than a start capacitor, so replacement selection should be based on the specified capacitor type and electrical ratings rather than physical appearance alone.
Q: How can I determine whether an AAON P5130B needs replacement?
A: A service technician can evaluate the installed capacitor’s condition and measured capacitance against the equipment requirements, but operating symptoms alone do not prove that the capacitor has failed. Before ordering P5130B, verify that it is the specified part and that the required component is a 15 MFD, 370 VAC, 50/60 Hz oval run capacitor.
