   Condenser fan motor substitute   
   11 Aug 15 07:56:05   
   
   I have a very old carrier condenser. I need a replacement fan motor. The   
   current motor is a 5kcp39bg GE unit with the following specs:   
      
   RPM = 1100     HP= 1/10     HZ = 60 u = 208-230. A= .75 Rot Cap = 5.00/370.   
      
   What I am finding is no one has a direct replacement. Several mention using   
   another horsepower motor but then the amps are different.   
      
   What would be "safe" to use if having to go up in horsepower/amps?   
      
   Also, my motor mounts to the top of the condenser lid with acorn nuts. Do any   
   of the above numbers show the fit or proper spacing of the studs?   
      
   Thanks for any help you can provide.
