I've got a couple pieces of info on this unit if you want it - send me an email (address is in my profile).
20 Ton, Nov 1979
So which is it? Inquiring minds want to know......
Is it a Residential 2 ton or a Big Ass 20 ton condenser
Hmmmmm
I guess there are exceptions to everything, but I don't know of too many 20 ton units that are 208/230v, single phase units.Quote:

Because 20 tons at 230v/1 ph probably needs to draw 200A?Quote:

I might still find a hidden name plate on the motor itself when I pull it out, but this is the first one to go bad in about 40 years. Found it with the fan blade sheared off of its mount and the motor nearly seized. Every thing else checks out. Can't see why the blades would've ripped off, but guessing that running without blades attached finished off the motor. Thanks for any info or tips! I'm a passionate maintainer of relics including seven of these coupled to mid-90's Goodman's, an early 90's Viessmann NBEA35, a 1953 GE down-fired boiler, and more...

or...
5.6" US Motors "Rescue" TEAO PSC Condenser Fan Motor (208-230V, 1/3-1/6 HP, 1075 RPM)
Both motors operate at the same amperage (2.6 amps), which is very close to your original 2.5 amp motor.Quote:

For those reasons, I would be inclined to go with the Century motor.
Much appreciated. Others here must've nominated you for an award years ago... You don't work in Connecticut, do you? Thanks. I was headed to the supply house tomorrow with the sheared off fan blades looking for a match. Is that the best bet? It's 16" in diameter with five blades pitched so it's 4" high when laying flat. In nice shape except that the hub mount is ripped off cleanly. Guess I could weld it back on...
