Lennox 69W97 Fan Motor
The Lennox 69W97 is a heavy-duty, OEM condenser fan motor engineered for residential and light commercial HVAC units requiring a low-profile, high-torque 825 RPM speed. This 1/3 HP fan motor operates on a 208/230V single-phase power supply and is a direct factory replacement for part number 69W9701 and 100483-30. As a PSC (Permanent Split Capacitor) motor, it requires a 10 MFD / 370V capacitor to ensure proper startup torque and optimal efficiency during the cooling cycle. For contractors, the CCWLE rotation (Counter-Clockwise Lead End) and 48-frame design ensure a precise fit in Lennox, Armstrong, and Ducane condensers, maintaining the specific airflow static pressure designed by the manufacturer. Utilizing ball bearings rather than sleeve bearings, this motor is built for vertical mounting positions and provides superior heat dissipation in high-ambient environments.
Key Benefits:- Direct OEM Match: Drops into place of 69W9701 without modifications to mounting brackets or fan blade pitch requirements.
- 825 RPM Performance: Specifically matched to high-pitch fan blades to prevent amperage overdraw common with generic 1075 RPM substitutes.
- Industrial Build: Features a 48Y frame and robust motor housing for consistent heat rejection in extreme conditions.
- Low Maintenance: High-grade ball bearings reduce mechanical friction and noise throughout the operating life.
- Is the 69W97 interchangeable with 69W9701? Yes, these are identical part numbers and used interchangeably in Lennox service manuals.
- What happens if I use a 1075 RPM motor instead of this 825 RPM unit? Using a higher RPM motor can cause the fan blade to over-amp the motor, leading to thermal overload trips and potential failure of the 230V electrical circuit.
- Does this motor include the run capacitor? This is the motor only; it requires a 10 MFD 370VAC capacitor (sold separately) for correct operation.
