Century Motors OMC6517 Motor

The Century Motors OMC6517 is a specialized OEM replacement motor engineered for precision performance in residential and light commercial condenser and blower applications. Designed to meet the exact mechanical requirements of the R35035B001, this 1/5 HP 1075 RPM unit provides a seamless drop-in solution for Magic Chef and other major HVAC brands. Operating on 208-230V single phase power, the motor utilizes a Permanent Split Capacitor (PSC) design to maintain high efficiency and reliable operation under standard heat loads. The 42Y Nema frame and semi-enclosed housing ensure adequate protection while the sleeve bearing system provides quiet operation in vertical shaft-down or horizontal orientations.

For technicians performing a field swap, the CW lead end rotation and 1/2" x 3 3/8" shaft with a double flat provide the necessary clearance and fitment for standard fan blades and blowers. This 1.5 Amp motor features automatic thermal overload protection and Class B insulation to handle ambient temperatures up to 40°C. When replacing an aging or failed HVAC blower motor, the OMC6517 offers the exact electrical specifications and mounting stud configuration required to restore system airflow without the need for additional bracket modifications.

• Direct OEM Match: Precise electrical and mechanical equivalent for R35035B001 and F42B59A01, reducing diagnostic and installation time.
• Efficient PSC Design: High-torque 1075 RPM performance specifically tuned for 208-230V systems.
• Robust Construction: Features Class B insulation and thermal protection for extended run-times in condenser and air-over environments.
• Standardized Fitment: The 42Y frame and extended studs allow for secure mounting in a variety of residential furnace and AC units.

• Is a capacitor included with this motor? This motor requires a 5 MFD / 370V capacitor for operation; please verify your existing capacitor's rating or replace it during installation to ensure proper start torque.
• What is the rotation direction? The OMC6517 is designed with Clockwise Lead End (CWLE) rotation. Always verify the rotation of the original blower wheel or fan blade before installation.
• Can this be used in outdoor condenser units? Yes, with its semi-enclosed shell and air-over duty rating, it is suitable for outdoor condenser fan applications where the motor is protected from direct downpours.
