HVAC control motor for industrial use

The Dayton 36VF54 is a general-purpose three-phase motor built for HVAC control applications. Its totally enclosed non-ventilated design suits indoor environments where dust or moisture are present. It is intended for equipment builders and maintenance teams needing a direct-drive 1/4 HP unit.

1/4 HP at 1780 rpm with 1.15 service factor

Rated output is 1/4 HP at a nameplate speed of 1780 rpm on 60 Hz power. The 1.15 service factor provides limited headroom for intermittent overloads. Continuous operation beyond nameplate load or in ambients above 40 °C will exceed the motor's thermal limits.

Dual-voltage 230/460 V three-phase input

The motor operates on 230 V or 460 V three-phase supply, drawing 1.40 A at 230 V and 0.70 A at 460 V. It is not compatible with single-phase or DC power sources. Buyers without three-phase infrastructure cannot use this motor.

Questions about this item

Will the 1780 rpm, 56C frame motor line up with my existing 5/8 in. shaft coupling?

The motor uses a 56C frame with a 5/8 in. diameter keyed shaft, so it matches standard NEMA 56C couplings and face-mount bolt patterns.

How can I confirm the 36VF54 is running correctly after wiring it for 230 V three-phase?

Measure 1.40 A per phase at full load, verify 1780 rpm with a tachometer, and check that the housing stays below 40 °C ambient.

Does the box include mounting bolts, a shaft key, or a starter contactor?

The motor ships with the keyed shaft installed; mounting hardware and a magnetic starter must be sourced separately.
