Hoshizaki FM116A Ice Machine Fan Motor Kit W/ Capacitor 1/15HP 1PH

Airflow Generation:
Converts electrical power into mechanical rotation that drives the fan blade. As the fan rotates, it moves air through the condenser area, supporting heat transfer from the refrigeration system to the surrounding air. Adequate airflow helps maintain the operating conditions required during repeated cooling cycles.

Motor Operation:
Provides continuous rotational output when energized by the equipment's electrical system. Stable motor operation allows the connected fan to maintain consistent airflow, while intermittent operation or abnormal motor behaviour can reduce airflow through the condenser area.

Replacement Guidelines:
Replace the Fan Motor Kit if the motor fails to start, develops abnormal noise, operates inconsistently, or shows physical or electrical damage. The part number FM116A and 115V voltage rating should be verified before replacement to ensure the correct fan motor kit is selected. Replace the fan motor kit if deterioration affects motor operation, fan rotation, electrical connection, airflow, or normal equipment operation.

Common Failure Symptoms:

• Fan does not operate during the expected equipment cycle.
• Airflow from the fan is reduced or absent.
• Fan operation becomes inconsistent during equipment use.
• Motor-related operation produces unusual mechanical noise.
• Equipment airflow is insufficient for the intended operating cycle.

Equipment Compatibility:
The HOSHIZAKI FM116A Fan Motor Kit is intended for equipment that specifies part number FM116A. Verify part number FM116A against the existing fan motor and confirm the applicable equipment model using the equipment parts diagram, owner's manual, or manufacturer's documentation.

• What can cause a fan motor to operate intermittently?

  Electrical connection problems, motor wear, overheating, or internal component deterioration can cause intermittent operation.

• How can abnormal fan motor noise affect equipment operation?

  Grinding, squealing, or humming may indicate mechanical wear or interference that can reduce reliable fan operation.

• What should be inspected if condenser airflow is reduced?

  Check the fan motor, fan blade, electrical connections, mounting points, and condenser area for obstruction or damage.

• How should the Hoshizaki FM116A Fan Motor Kit be maintained?

  Inspect the fan motor, wiring, mounting points, and fan area regularly for dust, debris, loose connections, or signs of wear, and follow Hoshizaki's recommended service procedures to help maintain proper airflow and motor operation.

• What does the Hoshizaki FM116A fan motor control?

  It drives the fan that circulates air through the condenser area during refrigeration operation.
