The Carrier HC41AE117 is a high-performance direct drive blower motor engineered for reliable airflow in residential and light commercial air handlers and furnaces. This 1/3 HP blower motor operates at a rated 1075 RPM and is built on a standard 48 frame (48FR) diameter, ensuring a Precise fit for OEM Carrier motor replacement in brands including Bryant and Payne. Operating on a 115V single-phase power supply at 60Hz, this permanent split capacitor (PSC) motor offers three-speed versatility to accommodate varying heating and cooling CFM requirements. The unit features a CCWLE rotation (Counter-Clockwise Lead End) and is equipped with sleeve bearings designed for quiet operation and a long service life under continuous load. To ensure peak electrical efficiency and protect internal windings, a 5 MFD / 370 VAC run capacitor is required for installation.

• Multi-Speed Flexibility: Features a 3-speed configuration, providing adaptable airflow control for multi-stage furnace and air handler systems.
• OEM-Grade Construction: Sourced as a genuine HVAC replacement part to maintain the original system efficiency and acoustic profile.
• Precision Balanced: Engineered to minimize vibration, reducing wear on the blower wheel and housing while extending the life of the motor.

Common Questions

What capacitor does the HC41AE117 require?
This motor requires a 5 MFD 370V run capacitor. Using an incorrectly rated capacitor can cause the motor to overheat or fail prematurely.

Can this motor replace a higher horsepower model?
The HC41AE117 is rated at 1/3 HP. It should only be used to replace motors of the same or lower horsepower. Never undersize a blower motor as it will lack the torque necessary to maintain static pressure.

Which direction does the shaft rotate?
This model is designed with a CCWLE rotation. Always verify the rotation of your existing blower wheel before installation to ensure proper system airflow.
