Century Motors FH1076 Motor
The Century Motors FH1076 is a professional-grade 3/4 HP condenser fan motor engineered for high-demand outdoor HVACR applications. Operating at 460 Vac, this single phase, permanent split capacitor motor is a direct replacement for the AO Smith F48N61A01 and several Carrier HC45MF460 and Trane MOT series models. Its 48Y Nema frame design features a 5-5/8 inch diameter with extended studs, allowing for versatile belly band or stud mounting configurations. Built with ball bearings and Class B insulation, it is rated for a 60°C ambient temperature, ensuring reliable performance in extreme rooftop environments. The 1075 RPM 2-speed capability, combined with a reversible rotation plug, provides the flexibility needed for various airflow requirements. This motor utilizes triple build wire for enhanced insulation protection against high-voltage spikes and requires a 15 MFD / 370V capacitor for proper PSC motor operation.
Key Benefits
- Universal Compatibility: Exact electrical match for the F48N61A01 and carries cross-references for Fasco, Marathon, and Packard units.
- Field Flexibility: Features a reversible rotation plug and 2-speed leads to accommodate different fan blade pitches and system specs.
- Durable Construction: Equipped with ball bearings for all-angle mounting and a semi-enclosed housing to protect internal windings from debris.
- Extended Reach: Includes a 1/2" x 6 1/2" shaft with a double flat, providing ample length for proper fan blade positioning.
- High Thermal Tolerance: Designed for continuous duty and automatic thermal protection in high-ambient outdoor conditions.
Common Questions
Does this motor include the run capacitor?
No, this motor requires a 15 MFD / 370 VAC capacitor which must be purchased separately to ensure correct startup torque and amperage draw.
Can I use this to replace a 230V motor?
No, the FH1076 is strictly a 460V motor. Applying lower voltage will result in failure and potential damage to the control board.
How do I change the rotation direction?
This motor utilizes a standard reversing plug located at the lead end; simply disconnect and flip the plug to switch between CW and CCW rotation.
