Carrier HC52AE235 Motor

The Carrier HC52AE235 is a high-performance direct drive condenser fan motor designed for heavy-duty HVACR applications. Operating at 200-230V and a single-phase frequency of 60Hz, this 1075 RPM motor features a 56F frame size and 1/3 HP output, making it a rugged solution for commercial and residential cooling systems. This unit is the direct replacement for HC52CE232, ensuring a seamless drop-in fit for technicians servicing Carrier, Bryant, and Carlyle equipment. Built with a totally enclosed air over (TEAO) design and permanent split capacitor (PSC) technology, it maintains thermal stability and high torque efficiency during peak operation.

• Direct Fit Compatibility: Specifically engineered as the OEM replacement motor for the legacy HC52CE232 model.
• Industrial Grade Construction: Features a moisture-resistant 56F frame and ball bearing design for extended mechanical life in harsh outdoor environments.
• Optimized Performance: Rated at 2.80 Amps to ensure low power consumption while delivering consistent static pressure.
• Serviceability: Standardized shaft dimensions allow for rapid condenser fan blade alignment and reduced onsite downtime.

Common Questions

What are the rotation specifications for this motor?
The HC52AE235 typically features an electrically reversible or CWLE/CCWLE rotation capability, though you should verify the lead configuration against your specific Carrier wiring diagram before installation.

Does this motor require a specific capacitor?
Yes, as a PSC motor, it must be paired with the correct MFD-rated run capacitor (typically 7.5/370V) to ensure proper starting torque and prevent winding overheat.

Can I use this in place of a 48-frame motor?
This is a 56-frame unit. While it may fit some bracket configurations, always confirm physical clearance and mounting hole alignment, as 56F motors generally have a larger diameter than standard 48-frame units.
