Trane MOT18923 Motor
The Trane MOT18923 is a high-performance direct replacement motor for the MOT3420, engineered specifically for condenser fan applications. Designed to meet or exceed OEM specifications, this 1/5HP motor operates on a 208-230V single-phase power supply, providing the reliability required for 24/7 HVAC operations. With a 2-speed configuration and a rated speed of 825 RPM, this motor allows for precise airflow management, optimizing heat rejection across the condenser coil and improving overall system efficiency. This 48 Frame motor features a TEAO (Totally Enclosed Air-Over) enclosure and Class F insulation, ensuring the internal components remain protected from humidity and debris in demanding outdoor environments. For contractors looking to eliminate callbacks, the MOT18923 offers CCW (Counter-Clockwise) rotation (lead end) and a standard 0.5-inch shaft diameter, ensuring a drop-in fit for compatible Trane and American Standard units.
Key Benefits:- Broad Compatibility: Serves as a direct replacement for outdated models like MOT3420, MOT10433, and MOT3031, simplifying inventory management.
- Optimized Performance: The 825 RPM 2-speed design enables selectable airflow settings to match cooling demand, reducing energy consumption during lower-load conditions.
- Industrial Grade Build: Features a rugged 48Y frame and TEAO enclosure to withstand consistent exposure to outdoor elements.
- Precision Engineering: Designed for CCW rotation to maintain the factory-standard airflow pattern required for effective heat transfer in condenser units.
- What capacitor is required for this motor? This PSC motor typically requires a 5.0 MFD / 370V AC run capacitor for optimal startup and operation.
- Can I use this motor to replace a single-speed model? Yes, the MOT18923 can replace a single-speed 825 RPM motor of the same horsepower and voltage, provided the frame size and rotation match.
- Is the rotation reversible on this unit? No, this motor is specifically designed for CCW Rotation (Lead End). Always verify the rotation of the existing fan blade before installation to prevent system overheating.
