Nidec-US Motors 8955 Motor
The Nidec U.S. Motors 8955 is a professional-grade PSC blower motor designed for reliable air movement in furnace and air handler applications. This 1/3 HP, single-phase motor operates at 115V and features a 1075 RPM rated speed. Built with a 42Y frame and a 5.0-inch diameter, it serves as a robust direct drive blower motor that integrates seamlessly into residential and light commercial HVAC systems. The Open Air Over (OAO) design ensures effective cooling during continuous operation, while the automatic reset thermal overload protector prevents winding damage from high-heat conditions. With a reversible rotation feature and 3-speed versatility, this 115V HVAC motor offers the flexibility required for precise airflow balancing on various job sites. Utilizing sleeve bearings with an all-angle thrust system, the Nidec 8955 motor provides quiet performance and consistent torque, making it a staple replacement furnace motor for contractors focusing on system efficiency and long-term uptime.
Key Benefits- Versatile Application: Three-speed design and reversible rotation allow for easy matching with original equipment specifications.
- Industrial Durability: Rolled steel frame and aluminum flange provide a stable, corrosion-resistant housing for critical components.
- Thermal Protection: Integrated automatic reset overload protection activates during abnormal temperature spikes to preserve motor integrity.
- Quiet Operation: Precision-balanced rotor and all-angle sleeve bearings minimize vibration and acoustic output during high-speed cycles.
- Standardized Mounting: Features a flexible hub/stud mount configuration compatible with most 42Y frame requirements.
What capacitor is required for the Nidec 8955?
This motor typically requires a 15 MFD / 370V run capacitor for proper PSC operation. Always verify the rating on the nameplate as capacitor requirements can vary by production lot.
Can this motor be used in outdoor condenser units?
No, the 8955 is an Open Air Over (OAO) motor designed for indoor air handlers and furnaces. For outdoor condenser fan applications, a Totally Enclosed Air Over (TEAO) motor is required to prevent moisture penetration.
How do I reverse the rotation for this motor?
Rotation is field-reversible. Simply swap the proper lead connections as indicated on the wiring diagram located on the motor's housing or the included technical sheet.
