OEM Carrier Condenser Fan Motor 1/12 HP 1100 RPM for Model PH13NR01800GAJAA

This is the factory-specified OEM condenser fan motor (part# HC31GE234, superseded by HB32GR234) for the Carrier PH13NR01800GAJAA heat pump condenser unit. The condenser fan motor drives the outdoor fan blade to pull air across the condenser coil, dissipating heat and maintaining system efficiency. When this motor fails, the outdoor fan stops spinning — causing the compressor to overheat, trip the high-pressure limit, and shut down the entire system. Common failure symptoms include the unit running briefly then cutting off, a humming outdoor unit with no fan movement, or a tripped breaker from motor overload.

• Specs: 1/12 HP | 208–230V, 60 Hz, 1-Phase | 1100 RPM | 0.50 Amps | 48Y Frame | Counter-Clockwise Rotation (CWLE) | 1/2" Shaft Diameter | Permanent Split Capacitor (PSC) | Requires 5 µF / 370VAC run capacitor (sold separately)
• OEM vs Generic: This OEM motor is wound and balanced to Carrier's exact factory tolerances, ensuring correct RPM, amperage draw, and rotation. Generic aftermarket motors often have looser RPM tolerances and inferior bearing quality, which can shorten compressor life through inadequate heat rejection.
• Install Difficulty: 3/5 — Requires disconnecting power at the outdoor disconnect and capacitor. Tools needed: 1/4" and 5/16" nut drivers, wire stripper, multimeter, and fan blade puller. Always photograph wiring and rotation direction before removal. Capacitor must be discharged before handling. Verify rotation matches original before powering on.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. Ships same business day from our warehouse.
