Nidec-US Motors 1871 Motor

The Nidec-US Motors 1871 Motor is a high-performance 1/10 HP condenser fan motor engineered for residential and commercial HVACR applications. Operating at a nominal 825 RPM on 208-230V single-phase power, this Permanent Split Capacitor (PSC) motor is a reliable choice for technicians requiring precision air movement in demanding environments. Built on a 48Y NEMA frame with a 5.6-inch diameter, it features a Totally Enclosed Air Over (TEAO) enclosure that protects internal components from environmental debris while utilizing the system's airflow for optimal thermal management. The reversible rotation capability and stud or band mount options offer maximum field flexibility, allowing it to replace a wide range of OEM units. Equipped with self-aligning ball bearings and an automatic reset thermal overload protector, this motor is designed for continuous duty and can withstand ambient temperatures up to 60°C (140°F). The 1/2" diameter x 6" long shaft and 36" leads streamline installation in diverse condenser configurations.

• Versatile Installation: The reversible rotation and all-angle mount (stud or belly band) allow this motor to adapt to multiple condenser fan blade pitches and housing styles.
• Extreme Temperature Rating: Built for high-ambient conditions, the 60°C rating ensures consistent performance during peak summer loads.
• Durable Construction: Features Class B insulation and an all-angle thrust system for continuous duty reliability in vertical or horizontal positions.
• Maintenance-Free Design: Self-aligning ball bearings and a totally enclosed frame reduce the risk of failure due to dust, moisture, or lack of lubrication.

What capacitor is required for the US Motors 1871?
This motor typically requires a 3 MFD / 370V capacitor (sold separately) to ensure proper starting torque and efficient PSC motor operation.

Can this motor be used in seaside or corrosive environments?
Yes, the TEAO enclosure and totally enclosed design provide superior protection against contaminants compared to open-vented motors, making it suitable for varying outdoor conditions.

Is this a direct replacement for an 8-pole 825 RPM motor?
The Nidec 1871 is an 8-pole motor designed specifically for 825 RPM applications. Always verify the 48Y frame dimensions and 1.0 Amp rating against your existing nameplate data for a perfect match.
