Three-Phase Brake Motor for Industrial Use
The Dayton 10C901 is a 1/2 HP three-phase AC brake motor built for continuous-duty operation in industrial and commercial machinery. Its 48 frame size conforms to standard mounting dimensions for easy interchangeability. The motor operates on 208-230/460V power supplies and draws 2.0-2.0/1.0 full-load amps at maximum capacity. It is rated for ambient temperatures up to 40 degrees Celsius.
Verify Voltage and Inverter Compatibility
Confirm your facility provides either 208-230V or 460V three-phase power before ordering. The motor is inverter rated, so ensure your variable frequency drive matches the motor's voltage and current specifications for proper speed and torque control. Check that the 48 frame mounting pattern aligns with your existing equipment base or coupling arrangement. Continuous duty rating suits non-stop operation cycles.
Integrates Into Power Transmission Systems
This brake motor converts electrical energy into mechanical motion for manufacturing lines, HVAC equipment and pneumatics applications. The integrated brake function allows controlled stopping without external components, freeing up space in the drive train. Standard 48 frame dimensions simplify replacement in existing installations. Inverter compatibility enables precise speed adjustment for process optimisation.

Questions about this item
What comes with the 10C901 motor and what must I source separately?
The motor ships as a complete 1/2 HP three-phase unit in a 48 frame; mounting hardware, V-belts, pulleys and any brake components are not included and must be purchased separately.
How do I choose between the 208-230 V and 460 V connections on this 10C901?
The motor is dual-voltage: wire it for 208-230 V and it draws 2.0 A per phase, or reconnect for 460 V and it draws 1.0 A per phase — match the connection to your supply voltage.
What does the 1/2 HP rating mean when the 10C901 is running on a VFD in a 40 °C plant?
At continuous duty the motor delivers 1/2 HP; being inverter-rated it can run on a variable frequency drive for speed control while staying within its 40 °C maximum ambient temperature limit.
