Hi Carlos

   I believe it is a 30 uF, 30V electrolytic. It may be constructed to use the case/chassis mount as a neg lead default. How it is constructed can only be installed one way. 

   I have found Philco has built a lot of circuits that make you go huh, yet they all work. If it is in a motor control circuit, I'd guess it was there to steady out the drive from electrical noise. I am definitely not an expert though. 

Cheers, Link
