Century Motors OCA1056 Motor

The Century Motors OCA1056 is a professional-grade 1/2 HP condenser fan motor designed for high-demand HVACR applications. Engineered as a Carrier BDP OEM replacement motor, this unit features a 48Y Nema frame and operates at a reliable 1075 RPM. This Permanent Split Capacitor (PSC) motor is built with a semi-enclosed, air-over design and ball bearings to handle vertical shaft-up mounting positions in outdoor condensing units. Supporting multi-voltage 200-230/460V single-phase electrical systems, it provides versatility for commercial and residential contractors. The reversible rotation and 1/2" x 1 9/16" flat shaft ensure compatibility across various fan blade configurations. With automatic thermal protection and Class B insulation rated for a 60°C ambient temperature, this motor maintains peak performance during extreme seasonal peaks.

• Universal Compatibility: Serves as a direct OEM replacement motor for Carrier, BDP, and various cross-references like 3RCV2 and HC44VL460.
• Durable Construction: Features all-angle ball bearings and a rolled steel shell for extended service life in harsh outdoor environments.
• Flexible Installation: Reversible rotation and lug mounting allow for quick field adjustments to match existing equipment specs.
• High Thermal Tolerance: Rated for a 60°C ambient temperature, ensuring reliability in high-heat condenser housing.

What capacitor is required for the OCA1056?
This motor typically requires a 7.5 MFD / 440V run capacitor for proper 1075 RPM performance and amperage draw.

Is this motor suitable for speed control?
Yes, the OCA1056 is designed to be compatible with speed controllers (Motor Master) often found in commercial refrigeration and HVAC systems.

Can it be mounted in any orientation?
While optimized for vertical shaft-up orientation in condenser units, the ball bearing system and semi-enclosed design provide stability for standard HVAC applications.
