Lennox 12W71 Motor
The Lennox 12W71 Motor is a high-performance, OEM replacement blower motor engineered for reliability in Lennox residential and light commercial forced-air systems. Operating at 208-240V, this 1/2 HP 2-speed motor delivers a steady 825 RPM, providing the targeted static pressure required to maintain balanced airflow throughout the ductwork. Built with a 48-frame cast-iron housing and a standard 1/2-inch by 4-inch shaft, this permanent split capacitor (PSC) motor is designed for horizontal installation using a belly band mounting technique. The CCWLE rotation (Counter-Clockwise Lead End) and 3.9-amp draw ensure a direct fit for Lennox 65915600 specifications. For technicians, this 240V blower motor features automatic reset thermal overload protection, preventing winding failure during high-demand cycles. Whether you are addressing a failed Lennox furnace motor or performing a seasonal blower assembly overhaul, the 12W71 provides the exact electrical and mechanical tolerances necessary to restore factory-spec performance and air distribution efficiency.
Key Benefits- Dual-Speed Logic: Provides 2-speed flexibility to optimize airflow for both heating and cooling cycles.
- Internal Protection: Integrated automatic reset thermal overload prevents motor burnout during restricted airflow conditions.
- OEM Fitment: Eliminates mounting modifications with standard 5.7-inch diameter and 48-frame construction.
- Quiet Operation: Precision-balanced rotor and heavy-duty frame reduce vibration and resonance within the air handler cabinet.
What is the correct capacitor for the Lennox 12W71?
This motor typically requires a 20 MFD 370 VAC capacitor. Always verify the rating on the motor nameplate or existing capacitor before installation.
Can this motor be mounted in any orientation?
The 12W71 is specifically engineered for horizontal mounting. Vertical installation may lead to premature bearing wear due to improper oil distribution.
Is this a direct replacement for the Lennox 65915600?
Yes, the 12W71 is the official Lennox replacement for the 65915600 blower motor, sharing identical electrical and physical specs.
