Nidec-US Motors 1694 Motor

The Nidec-US Motors 1694 is a professional-grade 1/2 HP direct drive blower motor designed for high-static residential and light commercial HVAC applications. Operating at 115Vac with a 5.5 Amp draw, this Permanent Split Capacitor (PSC) motor features a versatile 3-speed configuration (running at 1625 RPM high speed) to optimize airflow across various ductwork resistances. Built on a 48YZ NEMA frame, it utilizes a 1/2" diameter shaft and supports both ring or stud mounting, making it a drop-in replacement for many OEM air handlers and furnaces. The open air over (OAO) enclosure ensures effective heat dissipation when positioned in the airstream, while the sleeve bearing system provides quiet operation for indoor units. This reversible rotation motor allows field-adjustable CCW or CW rotation to match specific blower wheel requirements, ensuring maximum compatibility for field service technicians.

  • Universal Mounting: Includes flexible ring and stud mount options to fit various bracket configurations.
  • Multi-Speed Flexibility: 3-speed taps allow for precise CFM tuning during system balancing.
  • Field Reversibility: Easy rotation changes reduce the need to carry multiple motor variants on the truck.
  • Standardized Frame: The 48YZ frame size and 1/2" shaft ensure compatibility with standard blower wheels.

Common Questions

Can I use this 1694 motor to replace an OEM motor with a different RPM?
This motor is rated at 1625 RPM. You should always match the nameplate RPM of your existing motor to maintain the original blower curve and avoid overheating the 1/2 HP windings or tripping the thermal protector.

What capacitor is required for the US Motors 1694?
As a Permanent Split Capacitor motor, it requires a specific run capacitor (typically 5-7.5 MFD/370V) to achieve proper torque and efficiency. Always check the motor nameplate for the exact Microfarad rating before installation.

Is this motor suitable for belt-drive applications?
No, this motor is a direct drive blower motor with sleeve bearings meant for the blower wheel to be mounted directly on the shaft. It is not designed to handle the side-loading tension of a belt-drive system.
