Introduction
This manual provides essential instructions for the safe and efficient installation, operation, and maintenance of your Packard Model 69317 electric motor. This motor is a 5-inch diameter, 1100 RPM, 120V unit, commonly used as a replacement for Broan 97009317. Please read this manual thoroughly before proceeding with installation or operation to ensure proper function and safety.
Important Safety Information
WARNING: Electrical shock hazard. Always disconnect power before installing, servicing, or cleaning this motor. Installation and servicing should only be performed by a qualified electrician or technician in accordance with all local and national electrical codes.
- Ensure the power supply matches the motor's voltage (120V) and frequency (60 Hz).
- Do not operate the motor if it is damaged or has exposed wiring.
- Keep hands, clothing, and tools clear of moving parts during operation.
- Ensure adequate ventilation around the motor to prevent overheating.
- This motor is designed for an open enclosure; protect it from moisture and debris.
Setup and Installation
Follow these steps for proper installation of your Packard 69317 motor:
- Power Disconnection: Ensure all power to the installation area is disconnected at the circuit breaker or fuse box. Verify with a voltage tester.
- Mounting: The motor features a stud mounting option. Securely attach the motor using the included mounting hardware. Ensure the motor is firmly seated and aligned to prevent vibration and premature wear.
- Wiring: This is a single-phase, 120V motor. Connect the motor's wires to the appropriate power supply leads. The motor rotation is Clockwise Shaft End (CWSE). Consult a wiring diagram if unsure. Ensure all connections are secure and insulated.
- Shaft Connection: Connect the fan blade or other driven component to the 1/2 x 2-5/8 inch shaft. Ensure the component is balanced and securely fastened.
- Enclosure: As this is an open enclosure motor, ensure it is installed in a location protected from direct moisture, dust, and other contaminants. Maintain adequate airflow around the motor.
- Final Check: Before restoring power, double-check all connections, mounting, and clearances.

Operating Instructions
Once the motor is correctly installed and all safety checks are complete, you can proceed with operation:
- Power On: Restore power to the circuit.
- Start-up: The motor is designed for single-speed operation at 1100 RPM. It should start smoothly.
- Monitoring: During initial operation, observe the motor for any unusual noises, vibrations, or excessive heat.
- Automatic Overload Protection: This motor is equipped with automatic overload protection. If the motor experiences an overload condition, it will automatically shut off to prevent damage. Allow the motor to cool down before attempting to restart. Identify and resolve the cause of the overload before restarting.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Packard 69317 motor.
- Cleaning: Periodically disconnect power and clean any dust or debris from the motor's exterior and ventilation openings. An open enclosure motor requires more frequent cleaning to prevent buildup that can impede airflow and cause overheating.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the motor for signs of wear, damage, or loose connections. Check the mounting hardware for tightness.
- Bearings: This motor uses sleeve bearings. While generally low-maintenance, listen for any unusual noises that might indicate bearing wear. Consult a qualified technician for bearing service if needed.
- Wiring: Inspect wiring for fraying, cracks, or loose connections. Repair or replace any damaged wiring immediately.
Troubleshooting
Before attempting any troubleshooting, ensure power is disconnected. If you are not comfortable performing these checks, contact a qualified technician.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Motor does not start | No power, loose wiring, tripped circuit breaker, motor overload. | Check power supply, verify wiring connections, reset breaker, allow motor to cool if overloaded. |
| Motor overheats and shuts off | Overload, insufficient ventilation, high ambient temperature, restricted airflow. | Reduce load, ensure clear ventilation, check ambient temperature, clean motor. |
| Excessive noise or vibration | Loose mounting, unbalanced driven component, worn bearings. | Tighten mounting hardware, check balance of fan/component, consult technician for bearing inspection. |
| Motor runs slowly | Low voltage, excessive load. | Verify power supply voltage, reduce mechanical load on the motor. |
