The Heatcraft Refrigeration 25317801S Motor is a workhorse designed to efficiently circulate air within residential refrigerators and freezers. Operating on standard household current (120 volts), this motor boasts a horsepower rating of 1/15 HP, providing enough power to move air consistently without consuming excessive energy. It spins at a constant speed of 1625 revolutions per minute (RPM), ensuring reliable airflow circulation within the appliance. This motor finds primary use as an evaporator motor within refrigerators and freezers. The evaporator is the component responsible for absorbing heat from the interior of the appliance. The 25317801S motor drives a fan blade, which pulls air across the evaporator coils. As the air absorbs heat from the coils, it cools down. This cool air is then circulated throughout the refrigerator or freezer cavity, maintaining the desired low temperature for food storage. Replacing a worn-out 25317801S motor can significantly improve the performance of your refrigerator or freezer. A properly functioning motor ensures efficient air circulation at a constant speed. This translates to improved temperature control within the appliance, keeping your food fresh and safe. The weight of 4.67 lbs makes it manageable for handling and installation within compatible refrigerators and freezers. Be sure to consult your specific appliance's manual for compatibility information before ordering.

Refrigeration systems use evaporator fans to circulate air through the cooling section. The Heatcraft Refrigeration 25317801S is an evaporator motor that provides the rotational drive needed to operate the connected fan and support air circulation within the refrigeration equipment.

Motor Electrical and Mechanical Operation:
The Heatcraft Refrigeration 25317801S operates on a 120V electrical supply, while its 1/15 HP rating identifies its specified power capacity for driving the evaporator fan. These specifications help determine whether the motor's electrical requirements and power rating match the refrigeration equipment.

Evaporator Fan Drive and Air Circulation:
The motor's rated speed of 1625 RPM describes how fast its shaft rotates to drive the evaporator fan. This rotational speed supports the fan's movement of air across the evaporator coil, helping circulate cooled air through the refrigeration compartment.

Replacement Guidelines:
Replacement may be necessary when a confirmed motor fault prevents the evaporator fan from operating as intended. Before ordering, verify the existing part number against the refrigeration equipment's parts documentation.

Common Failure Symptoms:

  • Evaporator fan fails to operate
  • Intermittent motor operation
  • Unusual operating noise
  • Excessive vibration
  • Reduced airflow

Equipment Compatibility:
The Heatcraft Refrigeration 25317801S is identified as an evaporator motor for refrigeration applications. Confirm the existing part number and the equipment's motor requirements against the manufacturer's parts documentation before ordering, as specific compatible models have not been provided.
