Armstrong Furnace R47363-001 Motor
Ensure reliable fan performance with the Armstrong Furnace R47363-001 Motor, a heavy-duty 1/4 HP condenser fan motor engineered for professional-grade HVAC applications. Operating at 1075 RPM on a 208-230V single-phase circuit, this PSC motor (Permanent Split Capacitor) provides fixed-speed stability for consistent thermal exchange. The 5.6-inch diameter frame is designed with an open drip-proof (ODP) enclosure, allowing for efficient heat dissipation during long cycles in demanding exterior environments. This genuine OEM replacement motor is a direct substitute for Emerson model K55HXKRY-976, featuring a standard 1/2-inch shaft and a 1.5-amp draw. Built with high-quality ball bearings, this condenser motor ensures low-vibration operation and long-term durability in residential and light commercial condensing units. As a veteran-preferred part, the R47363-001 simplifies field installation by matching factory wiring and mounting specs for Armstrong Air and Ducane systems.
Key Benefits- Precise Compatibility: Direct OEM fit for Armstrong Air and Ducane condenser models, utilizing the standard K55HXKRY-976 cross-reference.
- Optimized Efficiency: 1/4 HP 1075 RPM rating engineered to maintain correct static pressure and airflow across condenser coils.
- Industrial-Grade Build: Features a rugged ODP enclosure and robust internal bearings to resist wear in harsh outdoor conditions.
- Consistent Performance: 60Hz single-phase operation provides the high-starting torque necessary for reliable fan blade rotation.
What capacitor is required for the R47363-001 motor?
Most 1/4 HP Armstrong motors with these specifications utilize a 5 MFD 370V or 440V run capacitor. Always check the nameplate of the specific motor received to confirm the correct microfarad rating.
Can I use this motor to replace a 1/6 HP or 1/3 HP fan motor?
It is recommended to match the horsepower exactly. While a higher HP motor can sometimes be used if the physical dimensions and RPM match, using an incorrect horsepower can lead to overheating or decreased system efficiency.
Is this motor reversible?
The R47363-001 is typically configured for a specific rotation (clockwise or counter-clockwise lead end) to match the factory fan blade pitch. Verify rotation direction before securing the fan blade.
