  • $3,033.00


The Carrier HD56AK656 Motor is a high-performance 1 HP condenser fan motor engineered specifically for heavy-duty industrial and commercial HVAC applications. This three-phase motor features a robust 56Y frame and operates at a nameplate speed of 1,140 RPM, providing the consistent torque required for large-scale air moving equipment. Designed for versatility, it supports 208-230/460V AC power supplies, drawing 6.5-6.6/3.3 full load amps. A critical feature of this assembly is the integrated Low Ambient Control, which allows the system to maintain optimal head pressure during low-temperature cooling operations down to -20°F. As an OEM Carrier replacement motor, the HD56AK656 ensures seamless mechanical compatibility and electrical alignment with existing drive systems, eliminating the field-modification risks associated with generic alternatives. This PSC motor design with ball bearing construction is built to withstand the rigorous duty cycles of condenser fan service while maintaining high mechanical efficiency.

Key Benefits
  • Precision Control: Integrated low ambient factory control manages head pressure to prevent evaporator freeze-ups during cold weather operation.
  • Multi-Voltage Versatility: Dual-voltage 208-230/460V capability allows for standardized stocking across different job site power configurations.
  • Heavy-Duty Construction: The 56Y frame and 1 HP rating provide the structural integrity needed for high-static outdoor environments.
  • OEM Standards: Direct Carrier HD56AK656 replacement ensures point-to-point wiring accuracy and exact shaft dimensions for fan blade mounting.
Common Questions
  • What is the primary function of the low ambient control on this motor? It regulates fan speed or cycling based on refrigerant temperature to ensure the system operates reliably even when outdoor temperatures drop significantly.
  • Is this motor compatible with 575V systems? No, this specific model is rated for 208-230/460V. For 575V applications, a step-down transformer is typically required.
  • Does the HD56AK656 include the mounting hardware? It is designed to fit standard 56Y frame mounts; however, existing brackets and fan blades should be inspected for wear before reinstallation.
