Century Motors BDL1106 Motor
The Regal Rexnord Century Motors BDL1106 is a 1 HP direct drive blower motor designed for compatible HVAC fan and blower applications. Operating on 115 VAC, single-phase, 60 Hz power, this 3-speed HVAC blower motor delivers a rated speed of 1075 RPM with reversible rotation for installation flexibility.
Built with a 48Y NEMA frame, open air-over construction, ball bearings, and resilient mounting rings, the BDL1106 uses a permanent split capacitor (PSC) design with automatic thermal overload protection. Its nominal 5-5/8-inch motor diameter and 1/2-inch double-flat shaft support compatible direct-drive blower assemblies. The manufacturer catalog specifies 12.3 amps and a 20 MFD, 370 VAC run capacitor, which is not included.
Before replacing an existing blower motor, verify horsepower, voltage, speed selections, rotation, shaft dimensions, mounting configuration, capacitor requirements, and available airflow. The BDL1106 is intended for air-over-cooled applications and should be installed according to the equipment wiring diagram.
