Century Motors 680A Motor
The Century Motors 680A is a 1/8 HP, 115V permanent split capacitor (PSC) motor designed as a high-efficiency OEM replacement motor for HVAC and air-moving applications. Featuring a NEMA F48Y frame with a 5.6-inch diameter, this 3-speed motor operates at 775, 650, and 525 RPM, drawing 1.5 amps at full load. The double shaft design, measuring 11.5" x 1/2" x 11.5", allows for versatile blower and fan configurations. Built with a resilient base and open air over (OAO) enclosure, it ensures proper cooling during continuous duty. The motor includes automatic thermal protection, Class B insulation, and a 6 MFD 370V capacitor. Technicians can rely on the CCW lead end rotation and durable sleeve bearings for quiet, reliable performance in residential or commercial air handlers and ventilation systems.
Key Benefits for Contractors
- Multi-Speed Versatility: Triple speed taps (775/650/525 RPM) allow for precise airflow tuning to match specific system requirements.
- Drop-in OEM Compatibility: The F48Y frame and standard 1/2-inch double shaft ensure a streamlined fit for major HVAC brand replacements.
- Thermal Safety: Integrated automatic reset thermal overload protector prevents winding failure during restricted airflow conditions.
- Enhanced Efficiency: PSC design with an included 6 MFD capacitor provides a 42.8% efficiency rating, reducing operational costs.
- Installation Ready: Comes standard with 49-inch lead wires and a mounting capacitor to minimize time on the job site.
Common Questions
What is the primary application for a double shaft motor like the 680A?
Double shaft motors are typically utilized in fan coil units or specialized blowers where two wheels are driven by a single motor located between them.
Can the rotation of this motor be reversed in the field?
No, this model is specifically engineered for CCW rotation (Lead End). Verify your impeller direction before installation to ensure proper static pressure.
Is this motor suitable for enclosed environments?
This is an Open Air Over (OAO) motor. It requires the airflow from the fan it is driving to dissipate heat and must be installed in the direct airstream to prevent overheating.
