  • $1,716.00


When you're out on a service call for a Carrier, Bryant, or Payne rooftop unit or air handler, you need a high-torque replacement that matches OEM specs exactly. The Carrier HC46JQ230 Blower Motor is a heavy-duty, 208-230V, 540W single-phase motor engineered by Broad-Ocean to meet the rigorous demands of commercial HVAC airflow systems. This 10-pole motor is the direct replacement for HC46JZ230, operating at a high-speed 2190 RPM with clockwise (CW) rotation to maintain the static pressure required for optimal heat exchange.

Designed for Continuous Air Over (CAO) duty, this motor features Class F insulation and is electronically protected to handle high-ambient temperatures and prevent premature failure during peak cooling cycles. Whether you're servicing a 48TC series unit or similar packaged HVAC systems, the 3.8-4.3 amp draw ensures compatibility with existing electrical circuits and contactors. For a professional install, always inspect the blower wheel for balance issues to protect the new OEM blower motor from vibration-induced bearing wear.
