911 Post (Furnace Failure) Anyone cross reference a motor?

[ToolManTimTaylor]

I have searced and searched the net , all MY suppliers , Grainger , MWH , Robinson Supply , Johnstone Supply the works. I cannot find my motor. She is on her last legs (Bearing is wasted) I Removed the blower assy tray (Wiring nightmare) and pulled the motor to try and force lube the bearing (Kinda worked for the night but I need one ASAP)



It's a:



GE 5KCP39KGT398BS



Single Phase 115 Volt

7. 3 Amp

1075 RPM

4 Speed

With a 1/2" Diameter X 5" long shaft



She really isn't moving enough air over the heat exchanger to remove a ton of surface heat so I am afraid I am gonna burn something.

Have you tried getting yours rebuilt? Most electrical shops can rebuild yours or may have one already on the self.

TMTT, I'm sure this has already crossed your mind, but have you given Holley a call?

Dude, check those numbers again... the motor shop I used to deal with said there must be a number that was written down wrong...

Let me know if you need help with this... I have a few contacts back in MA that know these inside/out.



You must be able to rebuild it, no?

Man oh man This was a bear to find! Guys THANK YOU!!!!!!!

I located one , the deal was that this one was an OEM motor for the furnace company that must have bought ALL of this type motor And prolly got a good deal doing so. That is why I cannot find one.



HOWEVER I was able to find someone that cross referenced it over to a different motor all together (It's a Three Speed not a Four speed) As mine used only three of the 4 speeds anyways. He says that it should be the one. I gotta go down to Stamford to get it and will be having a fun time tonite stuffing it in place LOL!



I will keep ya updated.

Hey Guys, Got two motors located yesterday. We while at the counter made one last check as to what this could be. SO we deemed the replacement one was the one. Well with juust my luck after pulling the old unit out of the case sure they matched up BUT THE BRACKET LOCATIONS DIDN'T :{ So sure enough it was the one that was back at the store ... A FASCO 51-23012-41 Man It figures :-{}

TMTT,

For future referance all motors that are UL listed have a name plate that will give you frame size. With that and the speed/voltage finding a replacement shouldn't be a problem.

Motors were required to meet these standards in the 50's.
