Century's 48Y direct-drive fan and blower motors are rated Air Over duty — they must be mounted in the moving airstream, since the airflow is what cools the motor.

Nameplate check: confirm HP, RPM, voltage, and frame on your failed unit before quoting; some distributor listings show a 5 in. shaft extension versus the manufacturer's 5-1/2 in.
