FASCO D471 HVAC Motor OAO 1/20 HP 1550 rpm Stud

Fasco D471 HVAC motor is used in heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems for powering the blower or fan, ensuring efficient air circulation and temperature control in commercial buildings. This motor is known for its durability, quiet operation and compatibility with various HVAC units.

Working Mechanism:

• This Fasco D471 HVAC motor operates using a shaded pole design, a type of single-phase AC motor.
• When voltage is applied to the motor, it generates a rotating magnetic field, inducing current in the shading coils around one part of the pole.
• This creates a phase shift, causing the rotor to start turning.
• The motor's flat shaft is connected to the blower or fan it powers and as the rotor spins, it drives the air-moving component.

Features:

• This motor has an open air-over enclosure to ensure effective cooling & ventilation for the motor.
• It offers stud mounting to securely & easily install and position the motor in different HVAC systems.
• This motor operates on a single phase, simplifying its electrical requirements for various applications.
• It is equipped with sleeve bearings for smooth and reliable rotation, reducing friction and wear.
• This HVAC motor features a shaded pole motor design to operate quietly and efficiently.
• It has automatic thermal protection to safeguard the motor from overheating, enhancing safety and preventing damage.
• This motor has a flat motor shaft design for easy connection to various equipment.
• It offers Class B insulation to meet electrical safety standards and can operate within specified temperature limits for increased reliability.
