It was difficult for me to try to install into already installed housing with the ring that goes around the motor while trying to hold in place. After several almost successful attempts I gave up I ended up using a strip from a a roll of magnetic strip and push it up into place between the frame and the motor while going around the motor until the fit was firm. No rattles cobbles at full speed. Success.

Great product with two weeks in. Make sure you purchase the proper size motor for your attic fan. This one has enough horsepower to run my high-pitch 5-bladed fan. A smaller one that I purchased off the shelf only lasted one day. Also my install didn't need the included spacer clip.

Replacement for my old zhongshan broad-ocean ydz-150l62540-01 motor
This motor was an exact replacement for my old roof power ventilators. Was lucky, the old power vents were installed in 2006 and failed 2019. The old motors were zhongshan broad-ocean ydz-150l62540-01. Theses replacement motors are heavy duty and more powerful. Hope this equates to long life.
These motors fit the frames of the original power vents. They include spacer rings that I didn’t need. The flex conduit from the old motors (connection from motor to thermostat) they easily unscrewed from old motor and easily reattached to new motor.
Happy I found these, wasn’t in the mood to replace with new roof vents. The replacement motors are a little more than the basic motor and worth the extra $20 in my opinion
One installation tip for the do it your sellers ... affix the flex conduit from old motor to the new. Insert motor in frame and align the blade set screw to the flat part of the motor shaft. Let new motor shaft extend about 1/2” past blade and tighten set screw. This way the fan blade supports the motor as you maneuver the motor into the frame.

This is the second motor installed in one year to replace the original that lasted 12 years according to the Sears tag on the motor. Bought one last year to replace the 12 yrs old motors and it stop working during the most need time. Replaced it yesterday and it failed in 1-day. What is up with these low budget motors? Either the Capacitor is going out or motor or both. Don't have to time to tested out. Returning motor another, hopefully last longer?

Good value, quiet operation
Replacement motor has been installed and running for 3 months with no problems. Motor is quiet and vibration free. I have to go outside and look for open loovers to know if fan is in operation. Original motor lasted 15 months.

I have a few of these in my home. On average they last about 10 years then fail more than likely from the heat.

Motor was easy to install and it runs. It is set to run at 100 + degrees, so I won’t know if it does it’s job until after the temperature increases.

A terrible replacement of the original motor
The original and my first replacement motor were both outstanding. Both of them lasted approximately 10 years each. The metal spacer band which was a complete waste of time, because the motor was would not stay in place. After tightening the bracket around the band and motor, it ran about an hour and was slipping down. It would have slipped all of the way out. I will not do any more business with Master Flow products, and opt to reinstall my entire attic fan assembly with a different company.

These motors fit the fan housing perfectly and ran when the thermostatic switch energized. They have continued to work well in the attic.

The motor was for a gable fan in the attic, so I had to change the motor with the fan housing still attached to the wall. Watched a very helpful YouTube instructional video first. Once I assembed my tools & flashlight, turned off the power to the fan and loosened the blade from the old motor, I was able to finish removal of the old motor, install the new, reattach the fan blade, clean up and power on in less than 1 hour. If I had to do it a second time, could probably finish in 30 minutes.
