Bard HVAC 8102-009BX Motor

The Bard HVAC 8102-009BX motor is a direct-drive 1/6 HP blower motor engineered for specific Bard wall-mount units and heat pumps. Operating at 208-230V, 1-phase, this 1060 RPM HVAC motor provides the precise torque and airflow requirements needed to maintain static pressure within the system’s plenum. As a verified equivalent to the Bard 8102-009, this motor features a standard NEMA 48 frame and utilizes a permanent split capacitor (PSC) design for reliable performance in demanding commercial or portable classroom environments. For technicians performing a field replacement, ensure the run capacitor is inspected and replaced if it no longer meets the microfarad rating specified on the nameplate. Proper lead termination and shaft alignment are critical to prevent premature bearing wear and vibration. This OEM replacement motor ensures drop-in compatibility, maintaining the original equipment manufacturer's UL thermal protection standards and airflow transitions.

• Direct OEM Compatibility: Serves as the exact technical equivalent to the Bard 8102-009, ensuring no modifications are needed during installation.
• Optimized Airflow Management: The 1060 RPM rating is calibrated for Bard’s bypass and ventilation configurations to prevent evaporator coil freezing.
• Durable Construction: Built with high-grade internal windings and thermal overload protection to handle the high-cycle rates common in wall-mount HVAC applications.
• Efficient Voltage Range: Optimized for 208-230V 1Ph power supplies, providing stable operation across varied commercial electrical grids.

What is the difference between the 8102-009BX and the 8102-009?
Technically, they are identical. The 'BX' suffix typically indicates bulk packaging for distribution, but the motor specifications, lead lengths, and mounting points are the same.

Can I use a higher HP motor if this 1/6 HP version is out of stock?
It is not recommended. Increasing the horsepower can alter the fan curve and cause excessive noise or damage to the blower wheel. Stick to the 1/6 HP rating for this specific Bard assembly.

Does this motor include the run capacitor?
Replacement motors usually do not include the capacitor. You should verify the capacitor's MFD rating on the 8102-009BX motor housing and install a new one to ensure optimal motor life.
