Three-Phase HVAC Motor 1/2 HP 56 Frame
The Dayton 2N926 is a three-phase general-purpose AC motor rated at 1/2 horsepower for industrial and commercial power-transmission tasks. Its 56 frame size follows standard dimensions for compatibility with existing mounting arrangements. The motor operates on 230/460 V AC supplies and is built for continuous duty cycles in HVAC systems and manufacturing lines.
Continuous Duty Cycle and Frame Standard
Continuous duty rating means the motor can run without intermittent rest periods in demanding HVAC or pneumatic applications. The standard 56 frame allows direct replacement of similarly sized units without modifying mounting points or couplings. Full-load current is specified as 2.0 A at 230 V and 1.0 A at 460 V for accurate circuit planning.
Dual-Voltage 230/460 V AC Supply
The single specification that decides fit is the dual-voltage 230/460 V AC input, which must match the site power distribution exactly. Buyers whose facilities provide only single-phase voltage or a different three-phase level cannot use this motor. Verify the available supply before ordering to avoid an incompatible installation.

Questions about this item
How often do the bearings on this 56-frame motor need greasing under continuous duty?
The motor is rated for continuous duty; bearing relubrication intervals depend on load and ambient temperature, so follow the manufacturer’s maintenance schedule for the specific operating conditions.
What limits sustained output on the 230/460 V windings before thermal protection trips?
Full-load current is 2.0 A at 230 V or 1.0 A at 460 V; sustained operation above those amperages will cause winding temperature to reach the insulation-class limit first.
How much audible noise and heat does the 1/2 HP three-phase motor produce when running all day?
No sound-power or surface-temperature figures are published; expect typical industrial-motor noise and heat rise for a continuous-duty 56-frame unit at rated load.
