Fantech 49917 Belt Drive Blower Motor 1.5 Hp

Product Description

The FANTECH 49917 is a belt drive blower motor designed for commercial and residential ventilation and air handling applications. Rated at 1.5 horsepower with dual-speed operation at 1425 and 1725 RPM, this motor supports both 50 Hz and 60 Hz systems and accepts a wide voltage input of 208-220 volts or 440 volts. It is a direct replacement-style unit installed by licensed HVAC technicians in belt-driven air handler and blower assemblies where the motor connects to the blower wheel via a drive belt and pulley system.

This motor is suited for belt drive blower assemblies found in commercial rooftop units, large air handlers, and industrial ventilation systems. The dual-voltage configuration makes it adaptable to a range of electrical service conditions, and the dual-speed rating allows installation flexibility depending on the driven equipment's airflow requirements. HVAC technicians select this motor when servicing or replacing failed OEM belt drive motors in similarly rated blower systems.
