York S1-024-35318-000 Motor

As a veteran HVAC service tech, you know that a failed indoor blower motor can ground a system in the middle of a peak season. The York S1-024-35318-000 Motor is the industry-standard OEM replacement designed for high-static pressure applications in York, Coleman, and Luxaire air handlers. This 1/2 HP PSC blower motor operates on a 208-230V single-phase circuit, delivering a steady 1075 RPM to maintain proper CFM across your evaporator coil. With its 3-speed capability, this motor provides the flexibility needed to fine-tune airflow for both heating and cooling stages, ensuring your system hits its design Delta-T. The NEMA 48 frame and open drip-proof (ODP) enclosure facilitate efficient heat dissipation, while the CCW lead end rotation ensures correct squirrel cage orientation. When swapping this out, always check your run capacitor; a weak cap is a leading cause of premature winding failure in these permanent split capacitor motors.

Key Benefits for Contractors:

• Precise Airflow Control: Features a 3-speed motor design, allowing technicians to optimize static pressure for various ductwork configurations.
• OEM Compatibility: This is a direct-fit York replacement motor, eliminating the need for universal bracket modifications and reducing labor time.
• Reliable Performance: Engineered as a 1075 RPM blower motor to match original factory specifications for consistent air distribution.
• Standardized Mounting: Utilizes a 48 frame motor size, making it compatible with existing mounting bands and cradles in most residential units.
• Robust Build: The 208-230V single phase design is built for the demanding duty cycles of year-round climate control.

Common Service Questions:

What are the wiring color codes for this 3-speed motor?
Standard York replacement wiring typically utilizes Black (High), Blue (Medium), and Red (Low) for speed taps, with White as the common and Brown leads for the capacitor. Always verify the schematic on the motor shell before energizing.

Can I use this to replace a 115V motor?
No. The S1-024-35318-000 is specifically rated for 208-230V. Attempting to run this on a 115V circuit will result in insufficient torque and motor stall.

Is a new run capacitor required?
While not included, it is professional best practice to replace the capacitor when installing a new 1/2 HP motor to prevent nuisance tripping and ensure optimal starting torque.
