Description
The Century 246 is a reliable shaded pole motor engineered for demanding HVAC and refrigeration applications where compact size, low power draw, and durable construction are essential. Its totally enclosed air-over (TEAO) design protects internal components from airborne contaminants, making it well-suited for use in fan and blower assemblies where the motor is cooled by the airstream it drives.
