Dayton 4K061 Capacitor-Start Aeration Fan Motor 2 HP 115/230V AC

SKU CH-PGT7-54QVV

Capacitor-start aeration fan motor delivering 2 hp at 3,450 rpm on 115/230 V AC with auto thermal protection and continuous duty rating

  • 2 HP output drives demanding aeration fans
  • Capacitor-start design delivers strong starting torque
  • Dual-voltage 115/230 V AC suits flexible wiring
  • Totally enclosed air-over enclosure protects against dust and moisture
  • Continuous-duty rating with auto thermal protection for reliable long runs

Product Identity

The Dayton 4K061 is a 2 HP capacitor-start aeration fan motor built for continuous-duty farm and industrial airflow tasks. It operates on 115/230V AC single-phase power at 60 Hz and delivers a nameplate speed of 450 RPM in a 143TZ steel frame. The totally enclosed air-over enclosure and Class B insulation suit dirty or damp environments. Automatic thermal protection and a 1.0 service factor complete the package.

Target Users

This motor suits installers who need a rigid-base, horizontal-mount unit that reverses rotation on demand for aeration fans or similar belt-driven equipment. Buyers requiring a different frame size, multi-speed operation or vertical mounting should look elsewhere. The 50 °C ambient limit also rules out high-temperature process-air applications.

Deciding Specification

The 143TZ frame with rigid base mounting decides fitment; the motor bolts directly to a 143TZ footprint and the shaft height matches that standard. Confirm your driven equipment uses the same frame and a horizontal shaft before ordering.

Questions about this item

What voltage supply must I already have available for the 2 HP motor?

The motor runs on 115/230 V AC single-phase power; wire it for the voltage your site provides.

Will the 143TZ frame and 3,450 RPM nameplate speed match my existing fan housing and pulley?

The 143TZ frame and fixed 3,450 RPM speed are standard for many farm-duty fans; verify shaft diameter and pulley ratio before coupling.

How can I confirm the motor is operating correctly after installation?

Measure running current — it should read near 22.2 A at 115 V or 11.1 A at 230 V — and check that the automatic thermal protector does not trip under continuous load.
