Fasco A247 Motor
The Fasco A247 Draft Inducer Motor is a high-performance 115V 2-speed centrifugal blower engineered for precise flue gas management in high-efficiency Rheem and Ruud furnaces. As a critical OEM replacement draft inducer, it operates at dual speeds of 3250/2800 RPM, providing the necessary static pressure to clear the heat exchanger of combustion by-products before ignition. This 1/40 HP PSC (Permanent Split Capacitor) motor features a thermally protected design and high-quality sleeve bearings, ensuring reliable performance under the demanding thermal conditions of modern HVAC venting. This specific assembly replaces common manufacturer part numbers, including 7062-5519S and 70-100612-01, maintaining the exact airflow (CFM) tolerances required by your system’s pressure switches for safe start-up and continuous operation. For professional contractors, the Fasco A247 offers a drop-in 5-pin connector interface that eliminates wiring guesswork and prevents the common "pressure switch stuck open" errors associated with generic or underpowered alternatives.
- Direct OEM Compatibility: Specifically designed to replace Rheem 7062-5519S, ensuring a precise fit without modification.
- Optimized 2-Speed Operation: Switches between high and low fire modes (3250/2800 RPM) to maintain furnace efficiency across heating cycles.
- Enhanced Durability: Built with Class B insulation and an open-air-over housing to withstand high flue gas temperatures up to 180°F.
- Reduced Harmonic Noise: Precision-balanced plastic blower wheel and sleeve bearings minimize vibration and mechanical warble commonly found in aftermarket units.
- Complete Installation Kit: Includes the essential mounting gasket to ensure a gas-tight seal at the furnace discharge.
Common Questions
What is the primary cause of failure for the Fasco A247 motor?
Most inducer failures result from worn-out bearings due to the high-heat environment or moisture buildup from condensate issues. Signs of failure include a loud grinding noise or the motor seizing entirely, preventing the pressure switch from closing.
Can I use a single-speed motor as a substitute for this 2-speed model?
No. This furnace requires a 2-speed motor to communicate correctly with the control board's staging logic. Using a single-speed substitute will likely result in system lockouts and improper combustion rates.
Is the mounting gasket included with the A247 assembly?
Yes, this unit includes a pre-cut gasket, which is critical for preventing flue gas leakage into the mechanical room and ensuring the correct vacuum pressure is achieved.
