Common Questions
Is a capacitor included with the RA1036?
No, a 5 MFD 370V capacitor is required for operation and must be purchased separately if your existing one is out of spec.
What is the rotation direction of this motor?
The Century RA1036 is rated for Counter-Clockwise Lead End (CCWLE) rotation.
Can this replace a single-shaft motor?
This is a double shaft motor designed for specific fan coil units; while the extra shaft can sometimes be trimmed, it is best utilized in dual-wheel blower configurations.
