MOT13008 Trane Motor

Overview

The Trane MOT13008 motor is a component designed for Trane HVAC systems, likely serving as a furnace blower motor. Trane motors, such as the X13 furnace blower motor (MOT13908) are often designed as “drop-in” replacements, requiring no new wiring or field programming for installation.

Features

Trane motors, particularly modern variable-speed types, offer several benefits:

• Energy efficiency: By regulating speed, the system can operate at maximum efficiency, which can lead to cost savings on energy bills.
• Reduced wear and tear on other HVAC components, contributing to a longer system lifespan.
• Greater temperature control, helping to maintain year-round comfort.

Specifications

Specific specifications for the MOT13008 are not readily available in the top search results. However, similar Trane motors are often rated with specifications such as:

• Horsepower (HP): Commonly seen ratings for furnace or fan motors include 1/2 HP or 1/8 HP.
• Voltage: Typically 208-230 volt for blower motors.
• RPM: Condenser fan motors can have ratings like 1140 RPM.

Applications

Trane MOT series motors are typically applied in residential and commercial Trane/American Standard HVAC systems. They are essential for:

• Moving air through the ductwork in furnaces and air handlers (blower motors).
• Driving the fan blade in condenser units to facilitate heat exchange (condenser fan motors).
• General use in HVAC systems where precise, efficient air movement is required.
