Century Motors BL6416 Motor

The Century Motors BL6416 Motor is a heavy-duty, 4-speed shaded pole blower motor designed for high-performance air-over applications. This 1/5 HP furnace motor features a versatile multi-horsepower design, functioning efficiently at 1/5, 1/8, 1/10, and 1/15 HP ratings. Engineered for reliability in HVAC residential blower replacement tasks, it operates on a standard 115V single-phase power supply at 1050 RPM. The BL6416 4-speed motor utilizes a CCWLE (Counter Clockwise Lead End) rotation and a 42-frame diameter (5 inches) to ensure a precise fit in tight furnace cabinets. With a 1/2-inch flatted shaft and sleeve bearings, this unit is built for continuous duty performance in attic ventilators and fan coils. As a direct replacement for 559 and OCB6427, it offers contractors a reliable solution for Intertherm, Coleman, and Lear Siegler units. The automatic thermal overload protector provides essential circuit safety during high-amperage operation (7.1 Amp).
