Century Motors 435A Single Phase Induction Motor

Century 435A is a 1/2 HP, 460 V, single-phase outdoor condenser fan motor built on a 48-frame, 5-5/8-inch-diameter body with ball bearings for reliable operation in exposed outdoor environments. This open-lead PSC (permanent split capacitor) motor runs at 1,075 RPM on 60 Hz and a single speed, typically paired with a 7.5 μF, 370 V capacitor to start and run. The shaft is 1/2 inch in diameter with a 6.00-inch length, designed to fit standard condenser fan assemblies. It is commonly used as a replacement motor in outdoor condenser units for air conditioning and heat pump systems, delivering durable, low-maintenance operation at 460 V in demanding outdoor conditions. Century 435A motors are widely stocked as OEM replacements through HVAC distributors and retailers, reflecting their role as a standard solution for 1/2 HP, 460 V single-phase condenser fans.
