Building engineers, HVAC technicians, and maintenance staff servicing attic exhaust fans, ventilation fans, and general-purpose blower applications throughout commercial and residential buildings need a reliable, thermally protected replacement motor that installs quickly and performs dependably in demanding continuous-duty environments. The Fasco D174 is a 1/10 HP, 1500 RPM shaded pole general purpose fan and blower motor with a 4.4" frame, open air-over enclosure, sleeve bearings, and thermal protection -- a widely stocked replacement motor for attic exhaust fans, ventilation equipment, and general blower applications in commercial and residential building maintenance programs.
Key Features:
- Thermally Protected -- Built-in thermal protection automatically shuts the motor down if it reaches unsafe operating temperatures -- prevents motor burnout and reduces fire risk in unattended ventilation applications.
- Open Air-Over (OAO) Enclosure -- Open air-over design is cooled by the airflow generated by the fan or blower it drives -- suited for fan and blower applications where the motor is in the airstream.
- Shaded Pole Motor Type -- Shaded pole design provides simple, reliable starting without capacitors -- reduces maintenance requirements and failure points in ventilation and exhaust fan applications.
- Sleeve Bearings -- Precision sleeve bearings provide quiet, smooth operation and long service life in continuous-duty fan and blower applications.
- Extended Stud Shaft End Mounting -- Extended studs at the shaft end and hex mounting hub provide flexible mounting options for belly band or stud-bolt installation -- fits a wide range of fan and blower housings.
- 1-Year Manufacturer Warranty -- Backed by Fasco's standard 1-year manufacturer warranty on electric motors and motor accessories.
