Dayton 1 hp Capacitor-Start/Run Motor
This Dayton 1 hp motor uses a capacitor-start/run design on a 56C frame with a C-face rigid base. It runs at 1,725 RPM on single-phase power at 115 or 208-230 volts and 60 Hz. The open drip-proof enclosure and Class B insulation suit general-purpose industrial tasks. Auto thermal protection and a 1.15 service factor support continuous duty.
Suits builders wiring 115 V
Buyers who need three-phase power or a different voltage range cannot use this motor. Applications requiring a totally enclosed or wash-down rated enclosure should look elsewhere. Installations limited to a fixed rotation direction do not need the reversible CW/CCW shaft. Operations above 40 °C ambient exceed the rated temperature limit.
56C frame with C-face rigid base mounting
The 56C frame and C-face rigid base determine whether this motor bolts to your existing equipment. Shaft dimensions and bolt pattern follow the 56C standard for direct coupling. Verify the frame match before ordering; no other frame size fits the same pattern.

Questions about this item
How much noise and heat does the 1 hp 56C frame motor produce at 1,725 RPM with 1.15 service factor during continuous duty?
The open drip proof enclosure and Class B insulation are designed for continuous operation at up to 40 °C ambient; Auto thermal protection shuts the motor down if internal temperature rises excessively.
What voltage supply and mounting hardware must already be on site for the 115/208-230 V capacitor-start/run motor to operate?
A single-phase 60 Hz supply at 115 V or 208-230 V and a C-face rigid base mounting surface are required; the motor draws 8.4 A at 115 V or 4.6-4.2 A at 208-230 V.
Will the 56C frame motor align with existing 56-frame pulleys and couplings on older equipment?
Yes, the 56C frame dimensions and keyed shaft match standard NEMA 56 face-mount patterns, so legacy pulleys and couplings bolt on directly.
