Dayton 4K060 Capacitor-Start Aeration Fan Motor 1 1/2 HP 115/230V AC

SKU CH-47J3-VM4V0

Capacitor-start aeration fan motor delivers 1-1/2 hp at 450 RPM with 115/230V dual-voltage operation and auto thermal protection

  • 1 1/2 hp output drives demanding aeration fans
  • Capacitor-start design delivers strong starting torque
  • Dual 115/230V AC voltage fits common farm wiring
  • Auto thermal protection prevents overheating damage
  • Totally enclosed air-over enclosure resists dust and moisture

Farm-Duty Capacitor-Start Motor

The Dayton 4K060 is a single-phase farm-duty motor rated at 1 1/2 hp for continuous aeration or fan duties. Its capacitor-start design delivers reliable starting torque on 115 V or 230 V AC supplies. The 143TZ frame and rigid base suit horizontal mounting on steel equipment frames. Auto thermal protection and Class B insulation guard windings during long run cycles.

Rigid Base Mounting and Dual-Voltage Wiring

A steel frame and rigid base keep alignment steady under vibration from belt or direct drive loads. The dual-voltage nameplate (115/230 V) lets the installer select the supply by reconfiguring leads, simplifying replacement on mixed-voltage sites. Horizontal mounting position is fixed, so vertical shaft-up or shaft-down installations are not supported. CW/CCW rotation is field-reversible for airflow direction changes.

Thermals and Power Draw at Full Load

Continuous duty rating and a 1.0 service factor mean the motor runs at nameplate load without overload margin. Full-load current draws 17.4 A at 115 V or 8.7 A at 230 V, so circuit sizing must match the chosen voltage. Maximum ambient temperature is 50 °C; the totally enclosed air-over enclosure relies on driven airflow for cooling. Auto thermal protection resets once windings cool to safe temperature.

Questions about this item

What voltage does the 115/230V AC motor actually run on, and what current does it draw at each setting?

It operates on either 115 V or 230 V AC. At 115 V it draws 17.4 A full-load; at 230 V it draws 8.7 A full-load.

What frame and mounting pattern does the 143TZ rigid-base motor need to bolt down?

The motor uses a 143TZ frame with a rigid steel base designed for horizontal mounting only.

How do I wire the capacitor-start motor for 115 V versus 230 V, and which step is most often missed?

Follow the connection diagram on the nameplate to reconfigure the leads for the chosen voltage; the step most often missed is moving the internal jumper links to match the new voltage setting.
