CENTURY FEH1056S Condenser Fan Motor 1/2 HP 1050 rpm 60Hz

Century FEH1056S condenser fan motor is an essential component in HVAC systems to dissipate heat from the system's condenser coil.

Working Mechanism:

• When the air conditioning or refrigeration system is turned on, electricity flows to the condenser fan motor.
• The motor contains coils of wire wrapped around a metal core, creating an electromagnet when electricity passes through it.
• This electromagnet interacts with a permanent magnet or another magnetic field within the motor.
• The interaction of magnetic fields causes the motor shaft, which is connected to the fan blades, to begin rotating.
• As the shaft rotates, it also turns the fan blades attached to it.
• The spinning fan blades draw air through the condenser coils, facilitating the transfer of heat from the refrigerant inside the coils to the surrounding air.

Features:

• Century FEH1056S condenser fan motor features a permanent split capacitor for efficient and reliable operation.
• It comes in a TEAO (totally enclosed air over) enclosure that prevents dust & debris from entering while keeping the unit from overheating.
• This motor has Class B insulation and can operate in environments up to 60 degrees Celsius.
• It has ball bearings for smooth and quiet operation, reducing friction and extending the motor's lifespan.
• This Centruy motor comes with a 1/2-inch diameter shaft with a flat surface, facilitating easy installation and compatibility with various equipment.
• It is equipped with 26-inch leads that have quick-connect terminals, simplifying the wiring process and allowing for easy connection to power sources.
• This single-speed motor further features extended studs at both the shaft end and lead end, providing flexibility in mounting options and enhancing stability.

Compatible Accessories:

• Dayton 2MMDV7 Run Capacitor: This capacitor is ideal for use with this Century motor to boost its torque.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. How to avoid condenser fan motor failure?

A. To keep your motor from failing, ensure it does not overheat. Also, check electrical connections regularly and replace any damaged wires immediately. Dirt and debris buildup can also hamper the motor's performance. Therefore, keep the motor and peripheral components clean to avoid failures.

Q. What is the difference between a single-speed and a variable-speed condenser fan motor?

A. A single-speed condenser fan motor operates at a constant speed, while a variable-speed motor can adjust its speed based on the cooling demands of the system. A single-speed motor is ideal for applications where speed changes are rare.
