Recently while I was picking a former appliance repair mans garages I ended up with some extra condenser fan motors. While sorting them later I realized the 2 Whirlpool #833697 said they were 1200 rpm. I instantly thought they might be a great replacement for the 2 phase motors in our flattops and FEA machines. I knew the 1550 rpm 2 watt motor I had put in the FEA was louder than I liked so tonight I finally got around to trying this motor in my 40 flatop.
I have only been running the fan on a test cord as the rest of the wiring is not to great. I am extremely pleased at how this fan sounds. The slower rpm is so much better than the 1550 rpm motors.
Here is the coil carefully moved to get at the fan.
Not sure why the box says made in USA and the motor says made in China? Pretty sure both boxes had the same motor inside and were new and unused. Maybe the label was made here?
