Lennox 97W54 Motor
The Lennox 97W54 is a direct replacement blower motor engineered for high-efficiency performance in compatible Lennox, Allied, and Armstrong residential units. As a high-performance ECM - Programmed motor, this 1/2 HP blower motor utilizes a 48-frame design to deliver constant torque, maintaining consistent airflow even as static pressure fluctuates. Built for reliability, this X-13 Prog Motor Cons Torque operates on 208-230V, single-phase power at 60 Hz, with a rated current of 4.1 Amps. With a variable speed range of 600-1200 RPM and CCWLE rotation, it provides the precise air handling required for modern HVAC system diagnostics and efficiency benchmarking. For technicians performing a furnace blower motor replacement, this OEM Lennox part ensures a 46132-060 match, featuring a ball-bearing construction and a 1/2-inch by 3.92-inch shaft. Utilizing this energy-efficient motor minimizes operational noise while optimizing the heat exchange process in both heating and cooling cycles.
Key Benefits- Constant Torque Technology: Automatically adjusts to maintain necessary CFM, overcoming restrictive ductwork or dirty filters.
- OEM Precision: Pre-programmed specifically for Lennox equipment to ensure immediate "plug and play" compatibility without internal field programming.
- Enhanced Efficiency: ECM design significantly reduces electrical consumption compared to standard PSC motors.
- Industrial Build Quality: Features a robust 48-frame housing and high-grade ball bearings for extended operational life in high-cycle environments.
Is the Lennox 97W54 a direct substitute for a standard PSC motor?
No, this is an ECM (Electronically Commutated Motor) specifically programmed for high-efficiency units. It requires compatible controls and cannot be used to replace a standard induction motor without significant system modification.
Does the 97W54 require any field programming before installation?
No, this programmed blower motor arrives with factory settings tailored to the specific airflow requirements of its compatible Lennox models.
Which direction does this motor rotate?
The motor is rated for Counter-Clockwise Lead End (CCWLE) rotation, which is standard for many furnace blower assemblies.
