Product Description
The US MOTORS tp-e33-3sp2 is a universal fixed fractional evaporator motor designed as a direct replacement for residential and light commercial air handling applications. Rated at 1/3 horsepower and operating on 208-230 volts single phase, it draws 2.2 amps at full load. The motor runs at three selectable speeds of 800, 950, and 1075 RPM, making it adaptable to a range of airflow requirements without swapping components. A 10 MFD, 370 or 440 volt run capacitor is required for operation. This is a 48-frame motor installed by HVAC technicians servicing evaporator coil blower assemblies in split systems and air handlers.
The tp-e33-3sp2 fits evaporator blower applications in residential split systems and packaged units where a 48-frame, multi-speed PSC motor is specified. The side shell mount design is pre-drilled to accept Rheem-style mount wings and is also compatible with resilient mount rings, covering a wide range of blower housing configurations. The reversible rotation direction allows the motor to be configured for the specific airflow orientation required at the installation site without ordering a separate unit.

Compatibility
Designed as a universal OEM-style replacement evaporator motor for 48-frame blower assemblies; pre-drilled side shell mount accommodates Rheem mount wings and standard resilient mount rings.
Installation Notes
Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician. Disconnect and lock out all power to the air handler before removing the existing motor. Verify run capacitor rating matches the required 10 MFD at 370 or 440 volts before energizing. Confirm rotation direction and speed tap wiring against the equipment wiring diagram before restoring power.
