Nidec-US Motors 3847 Motor

The Nidec-US Motors 3847 Motor is a professional-grade 1/3 HP condenser fan motor designed for direct-drive applications in residential and light commercial HVAC units. Operating at 1075 RPM on a 230V single-phase power supply, this Permanent Split Capacitor (PSC) motor is a reliable drop-in replacement for many OEM fan configurations. It features a 48Y NEMA frame size with a 5.6-inch diameter, making it compatible with standard mounting brackets. The open drip-proof air over (ODPAO) enclosure is engineered to dissipate heat effectively while the motor is in the airstream, ensuring continuous-duty performance during peak summer loads. With reversible rotation and a 1/2" diameter x 5" long shaft, this motor offers the versatility needed for various airflow requirements. Built with self-aligning sleeve bearings and a resilient mount, the 3847 minimizes vibration transfer to the condenser cabinet, extending the operational life of the fan assembly and housing.

Key Benefits
  • High Temperature Resilience: Designed with Class B insulation and rated for 60°C ambient temperatures to prevent premature failure in high-heat environments.
  • Flexible Installation: Features reversible rotation capability and extended studs on the lead end for easy mounting in diverse condenser designs.
  • Internal Protection: Equipped with automatic thermal overload protection to safeguard the windings against overheating and voltage spikes.
  • Smooth Operation: The resilient base mount and sleeve bearings reduce mechanical noise, making it suitable for noise-sensitive residential areas.
  • Wide Compatibility: Standard 48Y frame and 1/2" shaft fit most common 5.6" diameter motor applications found in the field today.
Common Questions

What capacitor is required for the US Motors 3847?
This 1/3 HP motor typically requires a 7.5 MFD / 370V run capacitor for proper torque and efficiency. Always check the nameplate for the specific rating before installation.

Can I use this 1075 RPM motor to replace an 825 RPM unit?
No. Increasing the RPM beyond the original design can overload the fan blades and significantly increase the amp draw, potentially leading to motor burnout or system performance issues.

How do I change the rotation of the Nidec 3847?
Rotation is easily reversed by swapping the position of the two lead wires (usually housed in a plug or at the connection point) as indicated by the wiring diagram on the motor shell.
