Fasco UB579 Motor
The Fasco UB579 Motor is a high-performance unit bearing refrigeration motor designed for continuous duty in demanding HVACR environments. This 50 watt 115V motor operates at a consistent speed of 1500 RPM, providing the high-torque reliability required for commercial refrigeration motor replacement. Built with a rugged cast iron housing, it is engineered for long-term durability in walk-in coolers, food display cases, and ventilators. The shaded pole motor design is thermally protected and features a totally enclosed air over (TEAO) enclosure to prevent debris from compromising internal components. With its CCW (Counter Clockwise) rotation and standard 3/8-inch diameter shaft with a flat, this shapped pole air over motor integrates seamlessly into existing mounts via two feet or three rear holes. This unit is an ideal Fasco motor cross reference for OEM models such as the Fasco D579 or Century 259, ensuring consistent airflow and system efficiency.
Key Benefits- High-Torque Performance: 50 Watt output at 1500 RPM provides the necessary power for 6-inch to 10-inch fan blades.
- Robust Construction: Heavy-duty cast iron frame ensures stability and resists corrosion in high-humidity environments.
- Universal Mounting: Equipped with dual mounting feet and three rear holes for versatile installation in tight enclosures.
- Thermal Protection: Internal impedance protection prevents overheating and extends the service life during high-load cycles.
- Quiet Operation: Precision-engineered unit bearings reduce vibration and noise, critical for customer-facing display cases.
What is the correct mounting orientation for this motor?
The UB579 is specifically designed for horizontal or shaft-up mounting only to ensure proper lubricant distribution within the unit bearing.
Can this motor replace a higher RPM blower motor?
No, this motor is a 1500 RPM unit. Replacing a motor with different speed specifications will lead to poor airflow or overheating of the new motor.
Is the rotation reversible on the UB579?
No, this motor features a fixed CCW (Counter Clockwise) rotation when viewing from the lead end.
