Carrier HC24AU461 Inducer Motor

The Carrier HC24AU461 Inducer Motor is a high-performance OEM replacement part designed for specific commercial furnace and HVAC air-handling applications. Operating at 460V with a power rating of 1/16 HP, this single-phase motor delivers a consistent 3000 RPM to maintain optimal draft pressure and combustion efficiency. Built by Fasco (Model 712110604) with a Type U21B frame, it features a counterclockwise (CCW) rotation from the lead end and is thermally protected to prevent winding failure during high-cycle demands. The unit utilizes sealed ball bearings and a double-sided flat shaft for secure coupling, ensuring mechanical stability in high-temperature environments. For technicians servicing Carrier, Bryant, or Payne equipment, this draft inducer motor provides exact electrical and mounting compatibility, eliminating the need for capacitor matching or field modifications common with generic alternatives.

• OEM Precision: Direct replacement motor for Carrier and Bryant units (e.g., 580B and 580C series), ensuring a perfect fit without bracket modification.
• Enhanced Durability: Features a rolled steel frame and IP55 protection rating for superior resistance to dust and moisture in mechanical rooms.
• Maintenance-Free Design: Equipped with sealed ball bearings that require no lubrication, extending the service life of the HVAC inducer assembly.
• Efficient Performance: Optimized 3000 RPM speed profile provides reliable static pressure for stable gas furnace ignition and venting.
