Motor Specifications
The Dayton 5BE52 is a single-phase permanent split capacitor blower motor rated at 1/4 horsepower with a nameplate speed of 1725 RPM. It operates on 115V AC at 60 Hz and draws 4.2 amps at full load, making it suitable for direct-drive HVAC blower applications requiring continuous duty.
Electrical Compatibility
Verify that your system supplies 115V AC single-phase power at 60 Hz and can deliver at least 4.2 amps for the motor's full-load current. The motor is not usable at 200V or 208V, so confirm the supply voltage matches exactly before installation.
Installation Requirements
The 48Y frame motor features an open air-over enclosure and ring/stud mounting for all-angle positioning, requiring airflow across the body for cooling. Its shaft rotates in either clockwise or counter-clockwise direction and includes automatic thermal protection for continuous operation up to 40 degrees Celsius ambient temperature.

Questions about this item
What comes with the Dayton 5BE52 motor and what must be purchased separately?
The motor is supplied as a single unit with a 48Y frame, 1/4 HP output, 1725 RPM at 115 V AC, 4.2 A full-load current, open air-over enclosure, ring/stud mounting and reversible CW/CCW shaft rotation. Capacitor, mounting hardware, wiring and any drive components are not included.
How do I decide between the voltage and frame options for this motor?
This model is built for 115 V AC only and is not usable at 200 V or 208 V. The 48Y frame and 1/4 HP rating are fixed, so selection is simply confirming your application requires 115 V single-phase, 60 Hz, continuous-duty operation with a 48Y mounting pattern.
What does the 1725 RPM rating mean once the motor is installed in my HVAC blower?
At full load the shaft turns at 1725 RPM on 115 V AC, 60 Hz supply. The permanent-split-capacitor design provides single-speed operation, auto thermal protection and continuous duty up to 40 °C ambient, delivering the rated 1/4 HP directly to the blower wheel.
