Carrier HC44VQ852 Motor

The Carrier HC44VQ852 is a high-performance direct replacement for HC44VL852, engineered specifically for demanding condenser fan applications in residential and light commercial HVAC systems. This dual-voltage HVAC motor operates at 200-230/460V and features a 3/4 HP rating designed to maintain optimal static pressure and airflow. Running at a nominal 1075 RPM, this single-phase (1PH) induction motor provides the precise torque required for Carrier, Bryant, and Payne outdoor sections. As an OEM Carrier condenser fan motor, it ensures proper shaft alignment and mounting spacing, eliminating the common vibration issues associated with "will-fit" universal motors. Built for durability in harsh outdoor environments, the HC44VQ852 motor features high-grade insulation to handle the thermal loads of constant-duty cycling. Technicians can rely on this motor for exact electrical specifications and mechanical footprints, ensuring a streamlined installation and long-term system reliability.

Common Questions:

Is the HC44VQ852 a drop-in replacement for the HC44VL852?
Yes, the Carrier HC44VQ852 is the manufacturer-designated superseding part for the HC44VL852, sharing the same footprint and technical performance profile.

What capacitor is required for this motor?
Always check the motor nameplate upon arrival. While typically requiring a 10 MFD or 12.5 MFD / 370V-440V run capacitor depending on the specific Carrier unit configuration, it is best practice to install a new capacitor during motor replacement.

Can this motor be used in 460V 3-phase systems?
While this motor supports 460V, it is a single-phase (1PH) motor and should be wired according to the provided diagram for single-phase power supply only.
