Copeland 998-0251-00 Motor

The Copeland 998-0251-00 is an industrial-grade refrigeration condenser fan motor engineered for high-duty cycle performance in commercial HVACR environments. This 1/6 HP motor operates on a 208-230V single-phase power supply at a fixed speed of 1550 RPM, making it a critical component for maintaining head pressure in condensing units. Featuring a Permanent Split Capacitor (PSC) design, this motor provides the necessary torque for consistent airflow while maintaining electrical efficiency. The 5-5/8 inch diameter frame (NEMA 48Y) and resilient base mount ensure a secure fit and reduced vibration during continuous operation. Built with sleeve bearings and thermal overload protection, the Copeland 998-0251-00 is designed to withstand the harsh conditions of outdoor condensing units, facilitating optimal heat transfer and protecting the compressor from overheating. Whether you are servicing a walk-in cooler or a commercial A/C system, this OEM replacement motor delivers the reliability required by professional contractors.

• Optimized HP and RPM: The 1/6 HP, 1550 RPM configuration is specifically calibrated for efficient heat dissipation in Copeland refrigeration systems.
• Superior Build Quality: Features a durable 48-frame design with thermal protection to prevent winding failure during high-ambient conditions.
• Vibration Dampening: The resilient cradle mount minimizes structural noise and mechanical wear, extending the life of the fan assembly.
• Versatile Compatibility: Ideal for commercial HVACR repair, matching specifications for numerous 1/6 HP 230V condenser applications.

Common Technical Questions

What capacitor is required for this motor?
This motor typically utilizes a 3 MFD / 370V run capacitor. Always verify the microfarad rating on the motor nameplate before installation to ensure proper phase shift and motor longevity.

How do I confirm the rotation of the Copeland 998-0251-00?
This model is generally CCWSE (Counter-Clockwise Shaft End). When replacing a fan motor, ensure the rotation matches the pitch of your existing fan blade to maintain correct airflow direction across the coil.

Can this motor be used in 50Hz and 60Hz applications?
Yes, the Copeland 998-0251-00 is rated for 50/60 Hz, providing flexibility for various regional power grids and specialized industrial equipment.
