Century Motors RA1006 Motor
The Century Motors RA1006 is a professional-grade 5 5/8-inch diameter double shaft motor designed for high-performance air moving applications. Operating at 208-230Vac, this 1/8 HP multi-speed motor delivers 1075 RPM across three distinct speed taps, providing technical flexibility for precise CFM adjustments. It serves as the engineered high-amperage replacement for HC35FB666, utilizing a slightly higher horsepower rating to safely meet the original amp draw requirements of older Carrier/Bryant fan coil units. Built with a Permanent Split Capacitor (PSC) design and sleeve bearings, this motor is rated for continuous air over (CAO) duty. The unit features automatic thermal overload protection to prevent winding failure and utilizes a 1/2-inch flatted shaft on both ends to accommodate dual-blower wheel configurations. With a CCWLE rotation, the RA1006 ensures reliable performance in demanding HVAC environments where direct drive blower motor efficiency is critical.
Key Technical Benefits- Engineered Compatibility: Direct fit for model HC35FB666 with increased amperage capacity to ensure long-term reliability.
- Multi-Speed Versatility: 3-speed functionality allows for optimized airflow tuning in fan coil and blower assemblies.
- Thermal Security: Integrated auto protector prevents motor burnout during high-temperature operation or restricted airflow conditions.
- Durable Construction: Sleeve bearing design provides quiet operation and is optimized for continuous air over applications.
Is the RA1006 a direct replacement for the HC35FB666?
Yes, the RA1006 is the specified replacement. It features a slightly higher horsepower rating than the original to properly handle the required amp draw for compatible equipment.
What capacitor is required for this motor?
As a Permanent Split Capacitor motor, it requires a specific 370V/440V run capacitor (refer to the motor nameplate for the exact MFD rating) to ensure proper starting torque and efficiency.
Does this motor support dual blower wheels?
Yes, the double shaft configuration with 1/2-inch flatted shafts is specifically designed for applications requiring wheels on both sides of the motor.
