OEM Carrier Condenser Fan Motor 1/4 HP 208-230V 1100 RPM for Model PH13PR048000AFAA

This is the factory OEM condenser fan motor for the Carrier PH13PR048000AFAA split-system air conditioner. The condenser fan motor draws ambient air through the condenser coil and across the compressor, rejecting heat from the refrigerant cycle. When this motor fails, the condenser loses its ability to shed heat — resulting in high-pressure lockout, system short-cycling, or a complete no-cooling condition. Common failure signs include a humming outdoor unit with a stationary fan blade, the unit shutting off after a few minutes of operation, or a visibly seized or overheated motor.

• Specs: 1/4 HP | 208-230V | 1100 RPM | Single-Phase | 60 Hz | 1.40 Amps | Frame 48Y (5-5/8" diameter) | 1.5" shaft length | CWLE rotation | Replaces GE Genteq 5KCP39EGS070S, 5KCP39EGY823S, HC39GE237A, HC39GE236A, HC39GE234A, HC39GE232A, HC38GE231
• OEM vs Generic: This is a genuine Carrier OEM motor wound and balanced to exact factory tolerances. Aftermarket motors frequently vary in shaft diameter, rotation direction, and amp draw — any mismatch accelerates compressor wear and voids equipment warranties. Always verify HP, RPM, voltage, rotation, and shaft size against your unit's data plate before ordering.
• Install Difficulty: 3/5 — Requires disconnecting high-voltage power at the disconnect box and capacitor discharge before proceeding. Tools needed: 1/4" and 5/16" nut drivers, needle-nose pliers, multimeter, wire connectors, and a fan blade puller. Always photograph original wiring and motor orientation before removal. Note: Replace the run capacitor (5 MFD / 370V) at the same time — a weak capacitor is the #1 cause of premature motor failure.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. In-stock and ships same business day from our climate-controlled warehouse.
