Carrier LA01EW040 Fan Blade

The Carrier LA01EW040 Fan Blade is a critical OEM replacement condenser fan blade designed for precision airflow in high-tonnage Carrier, Bryant, and Payne units. Featuring a 26-inch diameter and a 26-degree pitch, this 3-blade assembly is engineered to maintain static pressure requirements while optimizing the heat rejection rate of the condenser coil. The propeller utilizes a 1/2-inch bore specifically positioned for intake side mounting, ensuring a secure fit on standard motor shafts to minimize vibration and bearing wear. With a counter-clockwise (CCW) rotation, this aluminum-constructed blade provides the necessary structural integrity for continuous duty in demanding commercial environments.

Technical specifications confirm this component is vital for 48LJE, 581AEV, and 48HJE series rooftop units. When performing a field replacement, technicians should verify the hub location and rotation to ensure the Carrier fan blade 26 inch propeller operates at its intended efficiency. Utilizing this factory authorized part ensures that the motor remains within its rated amperage draw, preventing premature failure of the assembly.

• Precise Airflow Dynamics: The 26-degree pitch is calibrated for maximum CFM output with minimal acoustic turbulence.
• Industrial-Grade Materials: Aluminum blades coupled with a steel hub offer superior resistance to corrosion and mechanical fatigue.
• Standardized Fit: The 1/2-inch bore ensures direct compatibility with widespread hvac condenser motor shafts.
• System Calibration: Engineered to match original equipment specifications for wattage consumption and thermal management.

Common Questions:

What is the correct rotation for the LA01EW040?
This blade is designed for counter-clockwise (CCW) rotation when viewing from the discharge side.

Can I use this on a 5/8-inch motor shaft?
No, this blade is specifically machined with a 1/2-inch bore. Attempting to modify the hub will compromise the balance and safety of the component.

Is the pitch adjustable on this 3-blade model?
This is a fixed-pitch 26-degree propeller; the blades are riveted to the hub to maintain exact aerodynamic performance.
