Trane MOT3328 Motor
The Trane MOT3328 is an OEM condenser fan motor engineered for high-efficiency thermal exchange in residential and commercial HVAC systems. This 1/8 HP motor operates at 230V and delivers a consistent 1550 RPM, ensuring optimal airflow across the condenser coils. Built with a 29 frame and featuring counterclockwise (CCW) rotation, it serves as a direct drop-in replacement for worn or seized Trane MOT03328 and MOT18913 units. Designed by GE Genteq, this motor incorporates a reliable thermally protected permanent split capacitor (PSC) design, pulling approximately 1.1 Amps under load. For HVAC technicians, the Trane MOT3328 motor is the standard choice for restoring system pressure and cooling capacity in 60Hz single-phase applications. Its open air-over (OAO) enclosure allows for superior heat dissipation, making it a rugged solution for demanding outdoor environments.
Key Benefits- Precision Engineering: The 1550 RPM output is calibrated to match original Trane airflow specifications, preventing system high-pressure trips.
- Direct Compatibility: Built to 29 frame standards, ensuring exact mounting alignment and shaft height for quick field installation.
- Thermal Management: Features internal thermal protection to safeguard the windings against overheating during peak summer loads.
- OEM Reliability: Manufactured by GE Genteq for Trane, utilizing high-grade bearings and insulation for extended service life in high-ambient conditions.
What are the symptoms of a failing MOT3328 motor?
Technicians typically observe humming without rotation, excessive vibration, or "grinding" bearing noise. High amp draw or intermittent thermal tripping often indicates winding degradation, necessitating a Trane motor replacement.
Can I use this motor if my original part is CCWLE?
Yes, the Trane MOT3328 is a CCW rotation motor (viewed from the lead end), making it compatible with systems requiring counterclockwise airflow movement.
Does this motor include a new run capacitor?
This item is the 1/8 HP motor only. It is professional best practice to replace the run capacitor whenever installing a new 230V condenser motor to ensure proper starting torque and efficiency.
