Dayton 5BE62 PSC Motor 1/6 HP 1140 RPM 115V 48Y Frame
A direct-drive blower motor with permanent split capacitor design, 1/6 HP output at 1140 RPM, 115 V single-phase power, 48Y frame and continuous-duty rating for HVAC airflow applications
- Permanent split capacitor design gives efficient single-phase operation
- 1/6 HP at 1140 RPM delivers steady airflow for blower duty
- 115 V AC input with 2.2 A full-load current fits standard circuits
- 48Y frame with ring/stud mounting allows flexible all-angle installation
- Auto thermal protection and Class B insulation support continuous 40 °C ambient use
Direct-Drive Blower Motor
The Dayton 5BE62 is a permanent-split-capacitor motor rated at 1/6 HP and 1140 RPM for 115 V single-phase supply. It suits technicians replacing a failed direct-drive blower in residential or light-commercial air-handling equipment where a 48Y frame and open air-over enclosure are specified.
Upgrade From Shaded-Pole Or Worn PSC Units
The jump is worth it when the existing motor runs hot, hums excessively or has lost starting torque after years of continuous duty. A PSC design with automatic thermal protection and Class B insulation delivers more reliable starting and cooler operation than aged shaded-pole or degraded PSC replacements.
Ring-Stud Mount Simplifies Swap
The 48Y frame with ring-stud mounting fits the original bolt pattern and the reversible CW/CCW shaft rotation eliminates wiring guesswork. Common issues arise when the capacitor microfarad value does not match the nameplate or when the blower wheel set-screw is not aligned on the single shaft flat.

Questions about this item
What size mounting ring or stud pattern does the 48Y frame motor use?
The motor mounts with a standard 48Y frame ring or stud pattern designed for direct-drive blower housings.
How do I wire the permanent split capacitor motor for reversible rotation?
Connect the 115 V supply to the main and auxiliary windings through the capacitor; swap the two winding leads to change between CW and CCW rotation.
When should the internal auto-reset thermal protector be expected to trip?
The protector opens if winding temperature exceeds the Class B limit during continuous duty at 40 °C ambient, then resets automatically once the motor cools.
