Lau 60561701 Fan Blade
The Lau 60561701 Fan Blade is a heavy-duty 24-inch condenser fan blade engineered for high-static pressure applications in commercial and residential HVACR units. Featuring a 27-degree pitch and a 5-blade configuration, this component is designed for clockwise (CW) rotation (viewed from the discharge side) to ensure optimal airflow and heat dissipation across the condenser coil. Built with heavy-duty aluminum spiders and blades, it provides the structural integrity required to prevent flexing under load, maintaining efficiency in high-ambient condensing units. The interchangeable hub (IH) design allows for field flexibility, accommodating various motor shaft diameters when paired with the appropriate Lau hub. This direct replacement fan blade is a critical component for restoring system performance and ensuring proper head pressure management in replacement HVAC blower parts applications.
Key Benefits
- Enhanced Durability: The heavy-duty construction minimizes vibration and resists fatigue in demanding outdoor environments.
- Universal Compatibility: The interchangeable hub system simplifies inventory by allowing technicians to adapt the blade to multiple shaft sizes.
- Optimized Airflow: A precise 27-degree blade pitch delivers the necessary CFM to maintain refrigerant subcooling levels.
- Direct OEM Replacement: Designed to meet or exceed original equipment specifications for 24-inch condenser fan profiles.
Common Questions
What hub do I need for the Lau 60561701?
This blade requires a Lau-style interchangeable hub (sold separately). Ensure you match the hub bore size to your specific motor shaft, typically 1/2" or 5/8" for these applications.
Can I use this blade in a counter-clockwise (CCW) application?
No, this blade is specifically pitched for clockwise (CW) rotation. Installing a CW blade in a CCW motor application will result in improper airflow and potential compressor overheating.
How do I confirm the 27-degree pitch is correct for my unit?
Verify the pitch by checking the mounting angle of the blade to the spider. Using a pitch with too much angle can overload the motor, while too little will reduce cooling capacity.
