Precision Electric Motor Sales 316481P 1/40 Hp 115V Motor

Product Description

The PRECISION ELECTRIC MOTOR SALES 316481P is a fractional horsepower electric motor rated at 1/40 HP and designed to run on 115 volts at 900 RPM. It features counterclockwise rotation viewed from the lead end (CCWLE), which determines correct shaft orientation during installation. This motor is a compact, low-speed unit suited for light-duty applications in HVAC, refrigeration, or appliance systems where precise rotation direction and controlled speed are required. Licensed HVAC technicians and appliance service professionals are the typical installers for this class of motor.

The 316481P is applicable in residential and light commercial settings where a fractional HP, single-phase motor is specified. Its 900 RPM rating makes it well suited for fan, blower, or draft inducer assemblies that require lower airflow speeds. CCWLE rotation must be confirmed against the original equipment specification before installation to ensure correct airflow direction and mechanical fit.

Key Features

• 1/40 HP fractional horsepower output for light-duty motor applications
• 115 volt single-phase operation compatible with standard residential power supply
• 900 RPM low-speed rating suited for fan and blower assemblies
• Counterclockwise rotation from lead end (CCWLE) for directionally specific installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement fractional horsepower motor for residential and light commercial HVAC, refrigeration, or appliance equipment requiring a 1/40 HP, 115 volt, 900 RPM, CCWLE motor.

Installation Notes
