Motor Identity and Purpose
The Dayton 119167.00 is a 1 hp single-phase capacitor-start/run motor built for continuous general-purpose duty. It suits workshops, farms and light industrial sites that need a rugged, fixed-speed drive for pumps, fans, conveyors or machine tools.
Capacity and Headroom
Rated at 1 hp with a 1.15 service factor, the motor delivers 1,725 RPM at 60 Hz and draws 8.4 A at 115 V or 4.6–4.2 A at 208–230 V. Continuous operation is rated up to a 40 °C ambient; the capacitor-run design maintains steady torque but offers no thermal protection, so overload monitoring must be supplied externally.
Mounting and Wiring Flexibility
A 56C frame with C-face and rigid base allows all-angle mounting, while the dual-voltage windings accept 115 V or 208–230 V supplies without rewiring. The shaft rotates CW or CCW, and the open drip-proof enclosure keeps weight at 41 lb, though it requires a clean, dry environment.

Questions about this item
Will the 56C frame and 115/208-230 V dual-voltage design let this motor replace the 1 hp unit on my older compressor?
The 56C face mount and rigid base match the common NEMA 56C pattern, and the nameplate lists 115 V or 208-230 V operation so you can wire it to either supply without a transformer.
How can I confirm the motor is running at the rated 1,725 RPM after wiring it up?
With a tachometer on the shaft you should read 1,725 RPM at 60 Hz under full load; the 1.15 service factor means it can handle brief overloads without tripping because there is no internal thermal protector.
Does the box include the start/run capacitor and mounting hardware, or must I buy them separately?
The capacitor is built into the motor enclosure, so no separate capacitor is needed; mounting bolts for the C-face and rigid base are not supplied and must be sourced to match your equipment.
