OEM Carrier Condenser Fan Motor 1/12 HP 208/230V for Model PH4RNG018000BAAA

This is the OEM factory-specified condenser fan motor (part number HC31GE229) for the Carrier PH4RNG018000BAAA heat pump condensing unit. Manufactured by GE for Carrier, this motor spins the condenser fan blade that draws air across the coil to dissipate heat from the refrigerant. When it fails, common symptoms include the condenser fan not spinning, the unit overheating and tripping the high-pressure limit, or the compressor shutting down on thermal overload — all of which leave you with no cooling or heating output.

• Specs: 1/12 HP | 208/230V, 60 Hz, 1-Phase | 800 RPM | 0.50A | Frame 48Y (5-5/8" diameter) | Shaft: 2" extension | CCW rotation (shaft up) | 3-wire | GE cross-reference: 5KCP39EFY445AS
• OEM vs Generic: This is a Carrier Factory Authorized Parts (FAP) motor built to exact factory tolerances. Generic aftermarket motors often differ in shaft length, rotation direction, or RPM — mismatches cause premature failure and may void your system warranty.
• Install Difficulty: 3/5 — Shut off the circuit breaker to the condensing unit before beginning. Tools needed: nut driver set, wire stripper, multimeter, and work gloves. Photograph all wiring before disconnecting. Note fan blade pitch and orientation before removal. Pro tip: Replace your run capacitor at the same time — a weak capacitor is a leading cause of motor failure.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects. Ships same business day from our warehouse when ordered before 3 PM EST.
