Bard 5152-061BX Wheel

The Bard 5152-061BX Blower Wheel is a precision-engineered 11x11DD blower wheel designed for direct-drive HVAC applications. This 11-inch diameter by 11-inch width centrifugal wheel features a 1/2-inch bore and Clockwise (CW) rotation as viewed from the drive end. Built with a concave hub configuration, this double-inlet component ensures optimal alignment on the motor shaft, reducing vibration and extending the life of your blower motor. Constructed from heavy-duty galvanized steel, it is balanced to OEM specifications to maintain high-static pressure performance across Bard wall-mount units and air handlers. For technicians performing a replacement, verify the 5152-061BX part number to ensure the hub offset and blade pitch match the original HVAC blower fan assembly, maintaining the design CFM and system efficiency levels required for site-specific climate control.

Key Benefits

• OEM Compatibility: Specifically engineered for a drop-in fit in Bard HVAC systems, eliminating field modifications.
• Dynamic Balance: Precision-balanced blades reduce mechanical stress, preventing premature sleeve bearing or ball bearing failure.
• Corrosion Resistance: Galvanized steel construction prevents oxidation in high-humidity airflow environments.
• Optimized Airflow: The double-inlet concave design maximizes air intake and static pressure delivery.

Common Questions

How do I confirm the rotation of this blower wheel?
Rotation is determined by looking at the wheel from the hub/bore side; the 5152-061BX is a CW rotation blower wheel.

What is the significance of the concave hub?
The concave wheel hub allows the motor to sit deeper within the wheel's center of gravity, reducing shaft overhang and minimizing run-out.

Can I use this as a generic 11x11 replacement?
While the dimensions match a standard 11x11DD wheel, always verify the hub offset and RPM rating to ensure compatibility with your specific motor and housing.
