Product Description
The VIRGINIA AIR 02440889000 is a condenser fan motor rated at 1/2 horsepower and designed for 230-volt operation with clockwise (CW) shaft rotation. Condenser fan motors drive the outdoor fan blade in air conditioning and heat pump systems, pulling air across the condenser coil to reject heat and maintain system efficiency. This motor is intended for installation by licensed HVAC technicians during routine maintenance, motor replacement, or condenser unit repair. The 230-volt rating and CW rotation are critical selection criteria that must match the original equipment before installation.
This motor is suited for residential and light commercial condenser applications where a 1/2 HP, 230-volt CW-rotation motor is specified. It is commonly installed in split-system air conditioners and heat pump condensing units as a direct OEM-style replacement. Technicians should verify shaft diameter, mounting configuration, and motor frame dimensions against the unit being serviced before ordering to confirm a proper fit.
Key Features
- 1/2 HP output rating suitable for standard residential condenser fan loads
- 230-volt operating voltage matches common single-phase condenser unit wiring
- Clockwise (CW) shaft rotation for correct condenser fan blade airflow direction
- Designed as an OEM-style replacement to restore original system performance
Compatibility
Designed as an OEM-style replacement condenser fan motor for VIRGINIA AIR HVAC systems and condenser units requiring a 1/2 HP, 230-volt, CW-rotation motor. Verify mounting style, shaft diameter, and frame size against the original motor before installation.
Installation Notes
Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician. Disconnect and lock out all electrical power to the condensing unit before removing the existing motor or any wiring. Confirm that shaft rotation, voltage, horsepower, mounting configuration, and capacitor requirements match the replacement motor before energizing the system. Refer to local electrical codes and the unit manufacturer's service documentation throughout the installation process.
