3/4 hp Capacitor-Start Motor
The Dayton 1K080 is a single-phase, capacitor-start motor rated at 3/4 hp. It operates on 115/208-230V AC at 60 Hz and fits a 56C frame with a C-face rigid base. The totally enclosed fan-cooled design suits continuous duty in general-purpose industrial applications.
Wiring and Mounting
Dual-voltage wiring allows connection at 115V or 208-230V; full-load current is 10.4A at low voltage and 5.3-5.2A at high voltage. Auto thermal protection and a 1.15 service factor help prevent overload damage. Verify rotation direction before coupling, as the shaft runs CW/CCW.
Industrial Equipment Builders
This motor suits equipment requiring a 56C frame, single-phase input and continuous operation up to 40 Degrees C ambient. Buyers needing three-phase power, a different frame size or higher horsepower should look at alternative models.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the motor is running correctly after installation?
Verify the nameplate RPM reaches 3,450 RPM under load and that current draw stays near 10.4 A at 115 V or 5.2–5.3 A at 208–230 V.
What components are included and what must be sourced separately?
The motor ships with a rigid C-face base; a capacitor, wiring, and mounting hardware are not included.
Which voltage configuration should I select for a 208 V supply?
The motor is rated 115/208-230 V and is usable at 208 V; wire it for the high-voltage connection per the nameplate diagram.
