Description
The US Motors 2827P is a reliable, purpose-built blower motor engineered for demanding HVAC air-handling applications. Designed as a Permanent Split Capacitor (PSC) motor, it delivers smooth, efficient operation and consistent airflow performance across a wide range of residential and light commercial blower assemblies.
Motor Overview
The 2827P operates on a single-phase, 115V AC power supply and runs at 1,050 RPM — a speed well suited for blower and air-circulation duty. Rated at 1/10 HP and drawing 2.5 amps, this motor balances energy efficiency with dependable output. The Permanent Split Capacitor design eliminates the need for a start capacitor, simplifying installation and reducing component count.

Design & Construction
The 42Y NEMA frame provides a standardized footprint for straightforward drop-in replacement in existing cradle-mount blower assemblies. The Open Air Over enclosure allows cooling airflow from the blower to pass over the motor, keeping operating temperatures in check without the need for a totally enclosed housing. The self-aligning sleeve bearing accommodates minor shaft misalignment, extending motor life and reducing maintenance requirements.
Dual Shaft & Rotation
The dual 1/2″ shaft design offers installation flexibility, allowing the motor to drive blower wheels from either end. Clockwise rotation at the lead end ensures compatibility with standard HVAC blower configurations. Always confirm rotation direction and shaft engagement before installation.
Applications
- Residential and light commercial furnace blower assemblies
- Air handler units
- Fan coil units
- Evaporative cooler blowers
- General HVAC air-circulation duty
