Heil Quaker ICP 1178026 Motor
The Heil Quaker ICP 1178026 Condenser Motor is a heavy-duty 1/4 HP HVAC replacement motor engineered for reliable heat dissipation in residential and light commercial condensing units. This 1100 RPM condenser fan motor operates on 208-230Vac, single-phase power, drawing 1.5 Amps at peak load. Built on a 48Y NEMA frame size, it features a Permanent Split Capacitor (PSC) design for improved electrical efficiency and starting torque. The unit utilizes a sleeve bearing system and a thru-bolt mount configuration for stable installation. This motor features a CW rotation (clockwise) and serves as the direct replacement for 1173700, ensuring a precise fit in legacy Heil, Quaker, and International Comfort Products (ICP) equipment without requiring bracket modifications.
- OEM Compatibility: Specifically designed as a drop-in ICP 1178026 replacement motor for seamless integration.
- Verified Performance: 1100 RPM single-speed operation maintains factory-spec airflow across the condenser coils.
- Industrial Build: The 48Y frame and thru-bolt mounting provide the structural rigidity needed for high-vibration outdoor environments.
- Efficient Operation: PSC motor technology reduces amperage draw, lowering operational costs and thermal stress on the windings.
Common Questions
Is the 1178026 compatible with my older ICP unit?
Yes, this Heil Quaker 1/4 HP motor is the designated replacement for part number 1173700. If your technical plate lists either number, this is the correct component for your repair.
What capacitor is required for this motor?
As a PSC condenser motor, it requires a run capacitor (typically 5 MFD/370V, though you should verify the rating on the original motor plate or service manual) to ensure proper phase shift and torque.
Can I use this motor if my unit requires CCW rotation?
No, this specific model is fixed for CW rotation. Always verify the lead end or shaft end rotation requirements of your fan blade before installation to prevent compressor overheating.
