Leeson 098000.00 DC Motor for HVAC
The Leeson 098000.00 is a new DC permanent magnet motor rated at 1/2 HP and 1,750 RPM. It operates on 90V DC with a full-load draw of 5.0 A. The 56C frame includes a removable base and a 5/8 in shaft for face or base mounting in HVAC control applications.
Integration into HVAC systems
The totally enclosed fan-cooled enclosure protects internal components in ambient temperatures up to 40 Degrees C. Continuous duty cycle and reversible CW/CCW rotation suit constant-operation equipment. Class F insulation and ball bearings support reliable service, while the removable base offers mounting flexibility for existing brackets.
Upgrading from worn or open motors
This unit replaces failed permanent-magnet DC motors of the same frame, voltage and horsepower. The jump is worth it when the original motor lacks thermal protection or shows reduced torque below the 18 in-lb rating. It is not for applications requiring AC input, different shaft dimensions or a higher service factor.
