Dayton 3M295 Condenser Fan Motor

The Dayton 3M295 is a single-phase permanent split capacitor motor rated at 1/2 horsepower. It operates at 230V AC with a nameplate speed of 825 RPM and draws 3.27 amps at full load. The unit features a 56YZ frame with a six-inch shaft length and automatic thermal protection.

Suits HVAC condenser replacements needing 230V

This motor fits applications requiring a cradle-base mount with horizontal or vertical shaft-up orientation. The open air-over enclosure and 60°C maximum ambient temperature suit standard condenser airflow. Buyers needing multi-speed operation, a different voltage, or a frame size other than 56YZ should look at other models.

Verify your system matches 230V single-phase

Confirm the existing motor runs at 60 Hz and uses a cradle-base mounting pattern. Check that the shaft rotation direction can be set to either clockwise or counter-clockwise as required. Ensure the installation location does not exceed the 60°C ambient limit for continuous duty.

Questions about this item

What capacitor rating do I need to run the 1/2 hp 230 V motor?

The motor uses a permanent split capacitor design; select a run capacitor matched to the 3.27 A full-load current and 230 V AC supply.

Will the 56YZ frame fit the cradle base on my existing condenser?

Yes, the 56YZ frame and cradle-base mounting are built for direct replacement in standard condenser housings.

How can I confirm the motor is running at the correct speed after installation?

Measure shaft rotation with a tachometer; it should read 825 RPM at 60 Hz with the 6-inch shaft turning freely in the chosen CW or CCW direction.
