Fasco D188 Motor
The Fasco D188 is a heavy-duty shaded pole HVAC motor designed for reliable performance in condenser fan and evaporator unit applications. Engineered as a 1/20 HP replacement motor, it operates at a consistent 1550 RPM and is rated for 115V single-phase power. It features a 3.3-inch frame diameter, making it a standard fit for many OEM replacements in light commercial and residential equipment. With a thermally protected motor design and sleeve bearings, this unit ensures high-density lubrication for extended service life in vertical or horizontal mounting positions. The CW rotating shaft measures 5/16" x 3", suitable for standard fan blades. When conducting a Fasco D188 motor replacement, contractors should verify the 1.8 Amp draw and frame size to ensure a precise drop-in fit. This motor is built to handle the rigorous cycling demands of modern refrigeration and air moving systems without premature winding failure.

Is the Fasco D188 reversible?
No, this motor is set for Clockwise (CW) rotation viewing the shaft end. Always verify the pitch of your fan blade before installation to ensure proper airflow direction.
What are the mounting options for this motor?
The D188 utilizes extended studs on the shaft end for mounting, but it can also be used in applications requiring a belly band or specific 3.3-inch motor clamps.
Does this motor require a start capacitor?
No, as a shaded pole motor, it does not require an external run or start capacitor, simplifying the electrical wiring process for field technicians.
