Trane MOT17042 Motor
The Trane MOT17042 Motor is a high-performance 1/3 HP blower motor specifically engineered for residential and light commercial Trane air handlers and furnaces. Operating at 208-230V and 50/60Hz, this programmable motor utilizes ECM technology to deliver constant torque, ensuring consistent airflow even against varying static pressures. As a direct OEM replacement motor, the MOT17042 eliminates compatibility issues common with universal parts, featuring a 56-frame size and CCW rotation geared for precise system synchronization. Pro-grade ball bearings and an ODP enclosure provide a quiet, rugged solution for 1050 RPM applications. For technicians, this programmed brushless DC motor simplifies the swap-out process by matching factory airflow profiles, which is critical for maintaining high SEER ratings. When diagnosing a failed induction motor, upgrading to this Trane constant torque motor ensures the drive system operates at peak efficiency with a dedicated 0.5-inch shaft diameter and electronic overload protection.
Key Benefits of the MOT17042
- Precise Airflow Control: Features 5 programmable speeds and constant torque technology to keep CFM rates stable across the ductwork.
- ECM Efficiency: The brushless DC design significantly reduces energy consumption compared to standard PSC motors.
- Rugged Build: Equipped with heavy-duty ball bearings and an Open Drip Proof (ODP) enclosure for a long service life in demanding HVAC environments.
- OEM Integration: This genuine Trane part ensures the control board communication and mounting 5.6875 x 8.125 dimensions are factory-accurate.
Common Questions
Is the Trane MOT17042 a multi-speed motor?
Yes, this is a 5-speed programmable motor. It uses ECM constant torque logic to adjust performance based on the specific taps energized by the furnace or air handler control board.
Does this motor replace standard 1/3 HP induction motors?
Only if the original equipment specified a programmed ECM. Because this unit relies on proprietary Trane programming for its torque curves, it is designed as a direct OEM replacement for MOT17042 applications.
What is the rotation and shaft size?
The motor features Counter-Clockwise (CCW) rotation with a standard 1/2-inch (0.5") diameter shaft, matching most Trane blower assembly requirements.
