Nidec-US Motors 1256 Condenser Motor

Professional-grade Nidec-US Motors 1256 1/12 HP Condenser Motor is a high-performance 115V direct drive blower motor designed for reliable airflow in HVACR systems, including packaged terminal air conditioners (PTAC) and heat pumps. Engineered with a 5-inch diameter (42 Frame) and double-shaft configuration, this PSC (Permanent Split Capacitor) motor offers three operating speeds at a base 1375 RPM to provide precise system balancing. The counterclockwise lead end (CCWLE) rotation and resilient base mount ensure reduced vibration and mechanical noise during consistent duty cycles. With ball bearings and an open air over (OAO) enclosure, this unit is built to withstand high demand while maintaining thermal stability through automatic reset overload protection. Contractors can utilize this as a direct replacement condenser motor for several common industry models, including Century DBL4500 and Fasco D1055, ensuring seamless integration into existing residential or light commercial furnace and air moving applications.

• Versatile Performance: 3-speed functionality allows for custom airflow adjustments to meet specific static pressure requirements.
• Enhanced Durability: Equipped with Class B insulation and ball bearings for extended operational life in 40°C ambient environments.
• Simplified Installation: Features 48-inch leads and includes the required 6 MFD/370 VAC capacitor for immediate field setup.
• Direct OEM Compatibility: Serves as a reliable cross-reference for multiple GE, Emerson, and Trane blower motor models.

What is the shaft size for the 1256 motor?
This motor features a double shaft measuring 1/2 inch in diameter by 8.25 inches on each side with a double flat design for secure blower wheel attachment.

Can this motor be used in a 230V system?
No, this specific model is rated for 115-127VAC at 60Hz. Applying higher voltage will damage the internal windings and trip the thermal protector.

Does it include a capacitor?
Yes, each unit is supplied with the 6 MFD capacitor required for the Permanent Split Capacitor circuit to operate correctly.
