Heil Quaker ICP 1172162 Motor
Upgrade or restore your outdoor condensing unit with the Heil Quaker ICP 1172162 Motor, a heavy-duty, genuine OEM replacement engineered for high-demand cooling environments. Built to meet the exact specifications of International Comfort Products (ICP) equipment, this 1/4 HP condenser fan motor operates at a steady 1100 RPM to maintain optimal head pressure and heat transfer across the coils. Designed as a permanent split capacitor motor, it provides high starting torque and energy-efficient operation for 208-230Vac single-phase systems, ensuring consistent airflow in residential and commercial applications.
Constructed with a standard 48 NEMA frame size and a durable sleeve bearing system, this motor is built for continuous air-over (CAO) duty. The thru-bolt mount and CW rotation (lead end) allow for a seamless fit in various Heil Quaker, Tempstar, and Comfortmaker models. To ensure the longevity of the fan condenser motor 1172162, technicians recommend replacing the run capacitor and inspecting the fan blade for balance issues during installation.
Key Benefits for HVAC Professionals:- OEM Compatibility: Precision-engineered for ICP Heil Quaker systems, including models like NAC036AKC3 and NAC042AKC3.
- Reliable Performance: 1-speed operation at 1.4 Amps provides the exact airflow needed for 1/4 horsepower cooling loads.
- Simplified Installation: Standard 48-frame design with a 1/2-inch diameter shaft and thru-bolt mounting for quick field replacement.
- Thermal Protection: Internal thermal protection prevents winding burnout during high-ambient temperature events.
What capacitor is required for the ICP 1172162 motor?
This motor typically requires a 5 MFD / 370V run capacitor for optimal operation. Using an out-of-tolerance capacitor can lead to overheating and premature failure.
Can I use this as a universal replacement for other 1/4 HP motors?
While the 1/4 HP and 1100 RPM specs are common, you must verify the CW rotation and 48Y frame dimensions to ensure physical and electrical compatibility with the existing fan blade and mounting bracket.
Why is my condenser fan motor humming but not spinning?
A humming motor usually indicates a failed run capacitor or a seized sleeve bearing. Test the capacitor with a multimeter before replacing the entire motor assembly.
