Just figured I would check to see if we had anyone here with a connection for HVAC parts.

 

Need a simple condensing fan motor Lennox 65G60 is the new part number and the OEM is an Emerson K55HXJRH-3601 band mounted motor. Mine is starting to heat up and pop the breaker so I figured before it blows in the middle of summer I should have one handy. Cleaned the coils and the unit today and will be doing some resistance / amp checks on it when I have some time. But in the mean time, for about $150, might as well have one ready to go.

no connections for the motor. I always end up paying $$$ retail. UGH. But I am curious if there could be a problem with a capacitor in-line with the motor. One of those cost me a bunch of money for a service call for a $5 part last year.(It didn't cause high amp or breaker issues, just inconsistent operation.)

Check w liberty or death.

you can get it at the lennox supply house in fairfield. adress is 4 Gardner rd fairfield, nj 07004

does motor have oil ports

I would use Grainger (https://www.grainger.com/Grainger/static/products.html)

 

Direct ship to you or pick up in store(no shipping). Usually very fast, whenever I need something.

I have an fan I could sell you... May work. It's brand new, I bought it thinking mine was bad but it was only the compasitor...

 

PM me your # and I'll send you pics when I get home..

 

Fan is new in box, never installed

I've dealt with Lennox in Parsippany and they bang you for full retail....as does Grainger. I've worked with Grainger and did several presentations for them / thier clients and still didn't get a 'contractor' price...so I'd rather order on line versus giving the Big Red one a dollar.

 

As far as oil ports....don't think so. It is a totally enclosed outdoor rated motor. The motor and condensing unit is close to 20 years old. Coils are in great shape, but fan motors tend to go bad over time. Lord knows I've replaced my share running upto 4 million sqft of commericial properties in the past.

many out door motors have oil ports especially ones that are 20 years old. if you are going to change the motor, oil the shaft and fan blade hub now, after 20 years it can be a real bear to get fan off the motor shaft. you could also walk into any plumbing and heating supply house tell them you need a condenser fan rescue motor there about 80 bucks and reversable if needed,make sure you get new capicator with it. just walk in like you belong there say your from wojos heating and cooling and get contractor price.

Thanks Heaterbob. I'll throw some Kroil on it before heading out on vacation. If it craps out when I am gone I won't care. The shaft and set screws seem to be in pretty good shape. But some penetration oil is always a good start.
