Heil Quaker ICP 1185887 Motor

The Heil Quaker ICP 1185887 Motor is a high-performance 1 HP variable speed blower motor engineered for precision airflow management in ICP, Heil, Tempstar, and Comfortmaker HVAC systems. This OEM replacement motor, manufactured by Genteq (model 5SEA39RLV5423), is a dual-voltage component compatible with both 120V and 230V/240V configurations. Operating at a standard 1050 RPM, this 48-frame ECM 5.0 EON motor features a 1/2-inch diameter shaft and is designed for continuous air-over duty. It serves as the direct technical successor to the obsolete ICP 1172829 part number.

For a successful field installation, contractors must note that this is the motor only (less module). To ensure full system communication and avoid variable speed motor troubleshooting issues, a compatible ECM control module must be paired with this unit. When replacing an existing 1172829, it is standard practice to synchronize the new motor with a module programmed specifically for your unit's model and serial number. This electronically commutated motor utilizes ball bearings for reduced friction and enhanced thermal efficiency in high-static environments.

• Direct OEM Compatibility: Engineered as a drop-in replacement for 1172829, maintaining original factory specifications.
• Dual Voltage Adaptability: Supports 120/230v 1hp applications, providing flexibility across different furnace and air handler platforms.
• Advanced ECM Technology: Features the Genteq ECM 5.0 EON architecture for precise torque control and consistent CFM delivery.
• Industrial Build Quality: Constructed with a NEMA 48 frame and insulation class B for durability in demanding HVACR cycles.

Common Questions

Does this motor include the programmed end cap?
No, this SKU is for the motor lead end only. The variable speed control module must be purchased separately or transferred from the existing assembly if it is still functional. We recommend providing your equipment's serial number to ensure the module is programmed with the correct airflow parameters.

Can I use this to replace a 3/4 HP motor?
While the 1185887 is often used in units that previously utilized 3/4 HP or 1 HP variants, you must verify that the module's programming matches the static pressure requirements of the specific blower wheel and cabinet size to prevent premature motor failure.

What causes these ECM motors to fail most frequently?
Most ECM blower motor failures are caused by electrical surges or "dirty" power. Installing an inline surge protector is a professional best practice to protect the sensitive electronics within the control module from voltage spikes.
