OEM Carrier Condenser Fan Motor 1/4 HP 208-230V for Model PH13NA03600GABAA

This is the factory-specified condenser fan motor for the Carrier PH13NA03600GABAA split-system air conditioner, replacing OEM part number HC39GE226. The condenser fan motor drives the outdoor fan blade, pulling air across the condenser coil to reject heat from the refrigerant. When this motor fails, the outdoor unit will run with no airflow — causing the system to overheat, trip the high-pressure limit switch, and shut down entirely. Common failure symptoms include the unit running briefly then locking out, the outdoor fan blade not spinning while the compressor hums, or the motor running hot and tripping its internal thermal overload.

• Specs: 1/4 HP | 208-230V | 1100 RPM | Single-Phase | Frame 48 | CW Rotation (shaft up) | 0.5" Diameter Shaft | Stud Mountable | Requires 10 MFD 370V Run Capacitor (sold separately)
• OEM vs Generic: This OEM-spec motor is wound and balanced to exact factory tolerances for the PH13NA03600GABAA platform. Generic motors often vary in RPM calibration and thermal overload settings, which can cause reduced efficiency, premature compressor wear, or repeated nuisance lockouts under peak summer load.
• Install Difficulty: 3/5 — Disconnect power at the breaker and capacitor before beginning. Tools needed: multimeter, 5/16" and 3/8" nut drivers, wire strippers, needle-nose pliers. Photograph all wiring connections before disconnecting. Note shaft orientation and rotation direction before removing the old motor. Discharge the run capacitor fully before touching wiring terminals.
• Warranty: 1-year replacement warranty. In-stock and ships same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Directly fits Carrier model PH13NA03600GABAA. Replaces OEM part number HC39GE226. Always verify voltage, HP, RPM, and rotation direction against your unit's data plate before installing. Note that a 10 MFD 370V run capacitor is required for correct motor operation — if your existing capacitor is more than 3 years old, replace it at the same time to avoid a repeat failure.
