York S1-7966-311P Blower Motor
The York S1-7966-311P Blower Motor is a high-reliability OEM replacement geared for residential furnace blower motor applications, specifically within York, Coleman, and Luxaire downflow gas furnaces. This 1/6 HP HVAC motor operates on a standard 115V single-phase power supply at 60Hz. It features a 42 NEMA frame size with an open enclosure design, promoting optimal thermal management during high-static operation. The unit is a direct replacement motor for legacy part numbers 322P289 and 322P289C, ensuring a seamless drop-in fit for DGAT, DGAM, and DLAS series equipment. Operating at a fixed 900 RPM with a counter-clockwise lead end (CCWLE) rotation, it utilizes a durable sleeve bearing system for quiet, long-term performance. Licensed contractors should verify the current draw, typically rated around 7.8 Amps, against the furnace data plate. Replacing a worn York blower motor with this genuine Source 1 HVAC part restores factory-spec airflow and maintains system efficiency in hot surface ignition systems.

What furnace models are compatible with the S1-7966-311P?
This motor is specifically designed for York, Coleman, and Luxaire gas furnaces, particularly the DGAT, DGAM, and DLAS series (Style E and F). Always check your model number on the equipment housing for a match.
Can I use this motor if my original was rated at 1000 RPM?
The York S1-7966-311P is often cited interchangeably with 900 and 1000 RPM specs; however, it is the performance-matched replacement for the S1-7966-3119 series. Ensure your fan blower wheel is balanced before installation to prevent premature bearing wear.
Does this motor include the capacitor?
As a professional-grade 115V furnace motor, it is recommended to replace the run capacitor during installation to ensure the 1/6 HP motor starts under the correct load and maintains efficiency.
