Daikin-McQuay 106163001 Motor

The Daikin-McQuay 106163001 Motor is a precision-engineered 1/7 HP PSC motor designed for high-static pressure environments and consistent airflow management in commercial air handling units and PTAC systems. Operating on a standard 115V single-phase circuit, this double shaft motor runs at a fixed 1510 RPM, providing the torque necessary to drive dual blower wheels or synchronized damper assemblies. As a Permanent Split Capacitor (PSC) unit, it offers a high power factor and reliable starting torque without the maintenance requirements of centrifugal switches.

This OEM replacement motor is a direct substitute for legacy part numbers including 023078900 and Fasco 7174-2067. The double shaft configuration allows for balanced load distribution, making it the standard choice for McQuay thin-line fan coils and unit ventilators where space and acoustic performance are critical. Built with Class B insulation and reinforced bearings, the 106163001 ensures extended duty cycles in demanding HVACR applications.

Key Benefits for Technicians:

• Direct OEM Fit: Drop-in replacement for Daikin-McQuay 106163001 and McQuay 23078900, eliminating the need for mounting modifications or shaft adapters.
• Optimized Airflow: The 1510 RPM rating is specifically calibrated for Daikin air handlers to maintain factory-specified static pressure and CFM.
• Dual-Shaft Versatility: Features two independent shafts rotating at identical speeds to power twin blower assemblies or airflow dampers simultaneously.
• PSC Efficiency: Utilizes a permanent split capacitor design for lower amp draw and cooler operation compared to shaded-pole alternatives.
• Commercial Grade Construction: Designed for continuous duty in institutional and industrial HVAC environments.

Common Questions:

What is the rotation direction for this motor?
The 106163001 motor typically features a CCW (Counter-Clockwise) rotation as viewed from the lead end, consistent with Daikin-McQuay blower specifications.

Does this motor include the capacitor?
This is the motor unit only; technicians should verify the required microfarad (mfd) rating on the nameplate and install a new capacitor to ensure optimal torque and winding protection.

Is this compatible with TSC083C units?
While this motor is a primary component, some TSC083C units may require a specific motor kit (023078500K). Verify your specific serial number for exact compatibility.
