  • Furnace with dual use inducer motor
    Patent number: 6543438
    Abstract: An improved furnace including a two-speed inducer motor which can be used as a single speed motor for either a vertically or horizontally vented furnaces. The inducer has a common terminal, a low speed terminal and a high speed terminal. One lead is attached to the common terminal and, depending on whether the furnace is vented horizontally or vertically, either the high speed or low speed terminal is used. If the furnace is vented vertically, one lead is connected to the common terminal and the other lead is connected to the low speed terminal. Thus the furnace operates at a low speed when the furnace is vented vertically. If the furnace is vented horizontally, one lead is connected to the common terminal and the other lead is connected to the high speed terminal. Thus, the inducer motor operates at the higher speed when the furnace is vented horizontally.
