The Carrier HC35VE230 is a high-efficiency condenser fan motor engineered for specific Carrier, Bryant, and Payne residential condensing units. Operating at 1/8 HP with a rated speed of 1125 RPM, this single-phase PSC (Permanent Split Capacitor) motor supports 208/230V applications. It features a standard 48-frame diameter and utilizes a 5 MFD/370V run capacitor (sold separately) to maintain optimal torque and thermal efficiency. As the direct replacement for HC35VE209, it ensures seamless mechanical alignment and electrical compatibility during field service. The motor is designed with ball bearings for increased durability in vertical shaft-up or shaft-down orientations and includes factory-installed leads for straightforward wiring to the contactor and capacitor. For contractors performing preventative maintenance or emergency repairs, verifying the OEM part number against the unit’s data plate ensures correct static pressure performance and airflow across the outdoor coil.

Key Benefits

• Direct OEM Fit: Drop-in replacement for the HC35VE209, eliminating the need for bracket modifications or shaft cutting.
• High-Temperature Rating: Class B insulation allows for reliable operation in high-ambient outdoor environments.
• Reversible Rotation: Configured for standard CCWLE rotation to match original fan blade pitch for correct CFM delivery.
• Quiet Operation: Precision-balanced internal components reduce harmonic vibration and cabinet noise.

Common Questions

Can I use a higher microfarad capacitor with this motor?
No, always match the 5 MFD/370V rating specified for the HC35VE230 to prevent winding overheating and premature motor failure.

Is this motor compatible with 460V systems?
This is a 208-230V single-phase motor and is not designed for 460V three-phase or single-phase industrial power supplies.

Does this replace older sleeve bearing motors?
Yes, this 1/8 HP 1125 RPM motor utilizes ball bearings, which provide a longer service life and better reliability than older sleeve bearing designs.
