Nidec-US Motors 5455 Motor

The Nidec-US Motors 5455 Motor is a professional-grade 1/3 HP condenser fan motor engineered for high-demand residential and commercial HVACR applications. Operating at 1075 RPM on a 208-230V single-phase power supply, this Permanent Split Capacitor (PSC) motor is designed for continuous duty performance in outdoor condensing units. It features a 48Y NEMA frame size and a 5.6-inch diameter, making it a drop-in OEM motor replacement for several premium brands, including legacy Rheem and Ruud equipment (replaces 51-23053-11 and K055SSD5455862B). The totally enclosed air over (TEAO) enclosure ensures maximum protection against environmental debris and moisture, while the automatic thermal overload protection prevents winding failure during peak summer loads. This unit utilizes a self-aligning sleeve bearing with an all-angle thrust system for quiet operation and is equipped with a reversible rotation feature to accommodate various fan blade pitches.

Key Benefits:

  • Broad Compatibility: Features 4-hole shell mounting specifically designed for Rheem/Ruud condenser fan applications and extended 8-32 studs for universal mounting.
  • High-Temperature Resilience: Rated for 140°F (60°C) ambient operating conditions, ensuring stability in extreme rooftop or ground-level environments.
  • Durable Construction: Built with Class B insulation and includes a slinger ring and drain holes on both ends to prevent moisture accumulation.
  • Flexible Installation: Comes with 30-inch to 41-inch leads and a 1/2" diameter x 3.25" long shaft for straightforward integration into existing fan housings.

Common Questions:

What capacitor is required for the US Motors 5455?
This motor requires a 5 MFD / 370V capacitor. Using the incorrect microfarad rating can lead to excessive heat and premature motor failure.

Can this motor be mounted in any position?
Yes, the self-aligning sleeve bearings feature an all-angle thrust system, allowing for vertical shaft-up, shaft-down, or horizontal installation.

Is the rotation reversible in the field?
Yes, the reversible rotation design allows technicians to easily switch between clockwise (CW) and counter-clockwise (CCW) rotation by changing the lead connections at the terminal box.
