Bard S8101-007 Fan Motor
The Bard S8101-007 Fan Motor is a high-performance 1/10 HP condenser fan motor designed for specific Bard wall-mount air conditioners and heat pumps. Operating at 208-230V with a rated speed of 1075 RPM, this PSC (Permanent Split Capacitor) motor ensures consistent airflow across the outdoor coil to maintain system head pressures within OEM tolerances. This unit serves as the direct replacement for Bard 8101-007, featuring a 48-frame diameter and reversible rotation capabilities. When replacing this single-speed blower motor, technicians should verify the capacitor rating, as a dedicated 370V run capacitor is typically required for optimal torque and thermal protection. Built with a totally enclosed air-over (TEAO) design, it handles the high-ambient conditions common in telecommunications and modular classroom cooling applications. Precise shaft dimensions and NEMA frame sizing allow for a seamless drop-in installation, reducing labor time and ensuring the HVAC system returns to factory performance standards.
Key Benefits:
- Direct OEM Compatibility: Engineered specifically for Bard HVAC units to replace the legacy 8101-007 part number.
- Industrial-Grade Construction: Features a moisture-resistant TEAO enclosure to extend the life of the internal windings.
- Optimized Efficiency: The 1075 RPM rating provides the static pressure necessary for efficient heat rejection.
- Simplified Installation: Standard 48-frame mounting pattern matches existing brackets in Bard wall-mount systems.
Common Questions:
What is the correct capacitor for the S8101-007?
This 208-230V fan motor usually requires a 5 MFD / 370V run capacitor; always check the motor nameplate during installation to confirm exact capacitance needs.
Can I use this motor to replace other 1/10 HP HVAC motors?
While the 1/10 HP and 1075 RPM specs are common, this unit is specifically calibrated for Bard wall-mount units. Verify the shaft length and frame diameter before attempting use in non-Bard equipment.
Is this a reversible rotation motor?
Yes, the Bard S8101-007 is designed with lead wires that allow for CW or CCW rotation to match the original fan blade pitch.
