Description
Product Description
Improve the cooling performance of your refrigeration system with the TJ90SM5109 universal condenser fan motor from PROLINE Parts. This motor is designed to circulate air across the condenser coil, helping to remove heat more efficiently and restore reliable operation in systems where the fan has worn out or failed. Because fan-motor assemblies vary by mounting type, wiring, and physical dimensions, please check with your maintenance technician prior to ordering to confirm fit and compatibility.

Features & Benefits
-
Universal fit design: Built to replace many older condenser fan motors; part number TJ90SM5109 covers a wide range of refrigeration units. apwagner.com+1
-
Efficient cooling support: Helps ensure proper airflow over the condenser coil, which is essential for maintaining compressor efficiency and system cooling performance. Appliance Parts Pros
-
Durable construction: Designed for continuous duty operation in refrigeration environments.
-
Simplified replacement: One motor replaces various legacy part numbers (see cross-reference section) — reduces the complexity of sourcing multiple options.
-
Cost-effective upgrade: Replacing a failing fan motor is often far more economical than replacing the entire refrigeration unit or dealing with increased energy and repair costs from poor cooling.
Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement Is Needed
-
Condenser fan has stopped spinning or is malfunctioning (no airflow across condenser coil).
-
Refrigeration system is running hot, compressor cycles on and off frequently, or the condenser coil is unusually warm.
-
System takes longer than normal to reach desired temperature or struggles to stay cold.
-
Fan motor produces noise (rumbling, grinding or vibration) when running — indicating wear or bearing failure.
-
Visible corrosion or damage on the fan motor assembly or mounting, or wires showing signs of aging.
-
The system’s efficiency has dropped noticeably (higher power draw, warmer cabinet) despite correct refrigerant levels and compressor function.
Compatible Equipment Models (Partial List)
Because this is a universal replacement part rather than model-specific, it fits a range of refrigeration and freezer condenser fan motor applications in domestic and commercial equipment. Example replacements include:
-
Systems originally using part numbers D550 or SM5109. Electronic Services and Parts+1
-
General refrigeration applications where a failed condenser fan is identified and motor specs match mounting/wiring of TJ90SM5109.
(Note: this list is not exhaustive. Always confirm your equipment's motor mounting, shaft size, wiring plug and electrical rating match before installation.)

This part may replace or be compatible with the following legacy or equivalent part numbers:
Compatibility Notes
-
Confirm your existing motor's mounting configuration (shaft length/diameter, bracket pattern) matches this universal motor.
-
Verify electrical specifications (voltage, phase, rpm) align with your system’s requirements.
-
Since this involves mechanical and electrical replacement inside a refrigeration or freezer environment, having a maintenance technician review the system prior to ordering is strongly recommended.
-
Installing a new fan motor may not solve cooling issues if the root cause is elsewhere (compressor failure, refrigerant leak, dirty condenser coil) — inspect the full system.
-
Because this motor is listed as a “universal” replacement, while compatible in many setups, there may be minor differences requiring adaptation (bracket spacing, wiring harness compatibility) — this is why technician verification is important.
