Carrier HC35GE235 Motor
The Carrier HC35GE235 is a Factory Authorized Parts™ condenser fan motor designed for precise compatibility with Carrier, Bryant, and Payne residential and light commercial HVAC units. This 1/8 HP motor operates at 208-230V and a low-speed 825 RPM, making it the direct replacement for part number 1173699. As a PSC (Permanent Split Capacitor) motor, it requires a 5 MFD/370V capacitor for optimal torque and energy efficiency. The single-phase, 60 Hz operation and 0.90 Amp draw ensure it meets the original equipment manufacturer’s performance curves, maintaining the correct static pressure and airflow across the condenser coils. Built with a totally enclosed air over (TEAO) enclosure, this motor is engineered for continuous duty in demanding outdoor environments, ensuring long-term thermal protection and mechanical reliability without the common pitfalls of universal aftermarket alternatives.
Key Benefits
- OEM Direct Fit: Eliminates the need for bracket modifications or lead wire splicing during installation.
- Optimized Heat Dissipation: The 825 RPM specification is critical for maintaining the design-basis subcooling and head pressure of the refrigerant circuit.
- Quiet Operation: Precision-balanced internal components reduce vibration and decibel levels compared to secondary market motors.
- Certified Reliability: Rigorously tested to meet the exact electrical and mechanical standards of Carrier Corporation.
Common Questions
Is this the correct replacement for my existing fan motor?
If your existing motor identifies as part number 1173699 or HC35GE235, this is the factory-authorized replacement. Always verify the 1/8 HP, 208-230V, and 825 RPM ratings on your current data plate to ensure compatibility.
Do I need to replace the capacitor when installing this motor?
It is a standard industry practice for HVAC technicians to replace the run capacitor (5 MFD / 370V) when installing a new motor to ensure the start-up torque and operational efficiency meet factory specs.
Does this motor include the fan blade?
No, this is the motor only. The 1/2-inch shaft is designed to accept your existing OEM fan blade assembly.
