Century Motors OGD1026 Motor
The Century Motors OGD1026 is a heavy-duty, 1/4 HP condenser fan motor engineered for high-demand HVACR applications. As a 0131M00847S direct replacement motor, this unit is specifically designed to restore original performance in Goodman, Janitrol, and Amana condensing units. Operating at 1075 RPM on a 208-230V single-phase circuit, this PSC (Permanent Split Capacitor) motor utilizes a 5 MFD/370V capacitor (often required/included) to maintain high starting torque and consistent efficiency under load.
This motor features a 48Y NEMA frame with a Totally Enclosed Air Over (TEAO) enclosure, providing essential protection against dust and moisture in outdoor environments. The CCW lead end rotation and standard 1/2" x 3 1/4" shaft ensure perfect alignment with existing fan blades. Built with a sleeve bearing system and automatic thermal protection, the Century OGD1026 motor is a reliable choice for contractors looking for an HVAC OEM replacement motor that eliminates compatibility guesswork and reduces system downtime in residential AC unit motor repairs.
Key Benefits for Technicians- Direct Drop-In Compatibility: Designed specifically as a Goodman 0131M00847S replacement, featuring the correct 5.6-inch diameter and extended mounting studs.
- TEAO Enclosure: The totally enclosed design protects internal windings from environmental debris, critical for condenser fan motor longevity.
- Thermal Overload Protection: Equipped with an automatic reset to prevent PSC motor failure during high-ambient operating conditions.
- Extended Lead Length: 47-inch leads with female spade terminals facilitate faster wiring in deep cabinets.
What capacitor is required for the OGD1026?
This motor requires a 5 MFD / 370V capacitor. Always verify the capacitor rating on the motor nameplate during installation, as using an incorrectly sized capacitor can lead to overheating or premature winding failure.
Can this motor be mounted in any orientation?
The Century OGD1026 is designed for vertical shaft down orientation, which is the standard configuration for most Goodman and Amana condenser units. Ensure the drain plugs are positioned correctly to allow moisture to escape.
Is this a multi-speed motor?
No, this is a single-speed motor optimized to run at a constant 1075 RPM to provide the specific CFM required for the heat transition across the condenser coils.
