Carrier HC43VL460 1/2HP Condenser Fan Motor 1075 RPM 460V 48 Frame
The Carrier HC43VL460 is a condenser fan motor designed for air conditioners and heat pumps. It's a crucial component responsible for driving the condenser fan, which plays a vital role in the cooling process. Here's how it works: As hot refrigerant vapor travels through the condenser coils, the condenser fan pulls air across them. This airflow removes heat from the refrigerant, allowing it to condense back into a liquid state. This cooler liquid refrigerant can then return to the evaporator coils for another cooling cycle. The Carrier HC43VL460 is a single-phase motor, operating on a standard 460-volt electrical circuit. Its 1/2 horsepower rating ensures it can efficiently handle the workload of circulating air through the condenser. With a rotation speed of 1075 RPM, this motor effectively spins the condenser fan to maintain optimal airflow for heat removal. Designed for a 60Hz frequency, it's compatible with most electrical grids in North America. Weighing approximately 14.73 pounds, it's a manageable size for servicing HVAC systems. By efficiently drawing air across the condenser coils and facilitating heat removal, the Carrier HC43VL460 condenser fan motor is essential for ensuring your air conditioner or heat pump operates at peak performance. This translates to a cooler and more comfortable home environment, along with potentially lower energy bills due to efficient system operation.
