Carrier LA01EC018 Fan Blade
The Carrier LA01EC018 Fan Blade is a critical OEM replacement condenser fan designed for high-performance heat pump and air conditioning applications. Engineered with an 18-inch diameter and a 34-degree pitch, this 3-blade aluminum propeller ensures precise airflow across the condenser coils, maintaining optimal heat exchange rates and preventing head pressure spikes. As a veteran-grade Factory Authorized Part, this component is 100% identical to REV005AC, offering a seamless drop-in solution for service technicians working on Carrier, Bryant, and Payne units.
For contractors, the 1/2 inch bore and clockwise (CW) rotation specifications are vital for verifying motor shaft compatibility. Using a genuine LA01EC018 propeller eliminates the vibration and efficiency loss often associated with universal "one-size-fits-all" blades. This heavy-duty blade is manufactured to withstand rigorous outdoor environments, ensuring the mechanical balance of the fan assembly remains within factory tolerances. Whether you are performing a routine motor swap or a complex repair, maintaining the original condenser fan blade pitch is essential for protecting the compressor and ensuring the system operates at its rated SEER efficiency.
Key Benefits for Technicians:- Precise OEM Specifications: Features an exact 18" diameter and 34-degree pitch to match original system requirements.
- Interchangeable Design: Formally recognized as identical to part REV005AC for broader model compatibility.
- Durable Construction: High-grade aluminum blades resist corrosion and environmental wear in coastal or high-humidity areas.
- Optimized Airflow: The 3-blade configuration is balanced to reduce mechanical stress on the condenser motor bearings.
- Does this blade include the set screw? Most OEM fan blades utilize a integrated hub with a pre-installed set screw for securing to 1/2" shafts.
- Is the LA01EC018 compatible with other brands? While specifically a Carrier part, it is the standard replacement for many Bryant and Payne outdoor sections utilizing the same 18" CW configuration.
- How do I verify rotation? This blade is Clockwise (CW) rotation, determined by looking at the discharge side of the fan.
