Condenser fan motors: confirm shaft diameter, length, rotation, and capacitor requirement — many ship without the capacitor. Ball-bearing (BF) versions outlast sleeve-bearing versions in hot condenser duty.
Replaces the older ORM5488F and 3459HS — the BF suffix is the ball-bearing version.
Confirming the right replacement
Before we quote, compare these fields on your failed motor's nameplate. If any of them differ, send us a photo of the nameplate and we'll match it exactly rather than guessing:
- Full model number — including any suffix letters
- HP, RPM, and voltage
- Frame size (e.g. 284T) and enclosure (TEFC, ODP, etc.)
- Full-load amps
