OEM Carrier Draft Inducer Motor with Capacitor (HC30GB230 / HC30GR231) for Model PY1PNA060120ADBA

This OEM draft inducer motor with integrated capacitor is the factory-specified replacement for the Carrier PY1PNA060120ADBA packaged gas unit. The draft inducer motor creates the negative pressure required to pull combustion gases safely out of the heat exchanger and through the flue before ignition begins. When this motor fails, the furnace will lock out on a pressure switch fault — typically displaying a fault code — because the control board cannot confirm safe draft before allowing gas flow. A failed capacitor within the assembly is often the first sign of trouble, causing the motor to hum without spinning or run sluggishly at reduced RPM.

• Specs: 1/16 HP | 208/230V, 1-Phase | 3450 RPM | CCWLE rotation | 5/16" × 3.3" shaft | Ball bearing | Thru-bolt mounting | Includes 4 MFD 370V run capacitor and hall effect sensor
• OEM vs Generic: This is a genuine Carrier OEM assembly (HC30GB230, superseded by HC30GR231). OEM motors are wound and balanced to factory tolerances, ensuring the hall effect sensor signal matches the control board's exact proving requirements. Generic motors frequently trigger nuisance pressure switch lockouts due to marginal RPM performance.
• Install difficulty: 3/5 — Requires disconnecting flue tubing, pressure switch hose, and wiring harness. Tools needed: 1/4" and 5/16" nut drivers, flathead screwdriver, needle-nose pliers, multimeter. Always disconnect power at the breaker and confirm zero voltage before handling. Photograph all wiring connections before removal.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty on parts and defects. Ships same business day from our warehouse when ordered before cutoff.

Compatibility: Direct OEM replacement for Carrier model PY1PNA060120ADBA packaged gas units. Part number HC30GB230 has been superseded by HC30GR231 — both are fulfilled as the current revision. Verify voltage (208/230V), HP (1/16), and RPM (3450) against your unit's data plate before ordering. Our fitment team is available to confirm compatibility before you buy.
