Direct-Drive Blower Motor
This Dayton 5BE64 is a permanent-split-capacitor motor rated at 1/3 HP and 1,140 RPM for 115 V AC single-phase supply. It targets HVAC technicians and maintenance teams who need a direct-drive replacement for air-handling equipment. The 56Z frame and ring-stud mounting allow drop-in installation on compatible blower housings.
Ring-Stud Mount, Open Air-Over
The open air-over enclosure relies on the blower's airflow for cooling, so the motor must sit inside the airstream it creates. Auto thermal protection and Class B insulation guard against overheating during continuous duty at up to 40 °C ambient. A single shaft rotates either clockwise or counter-clockwise to match the original equipment.
Steady-State Air Handling
Running at the nameplate 1,140 RPM with a 4.7 A full-load draw, the motor delivers consistent torque across its 60 Hz operating range. The 1.0 service factor leaves no margin for sustained overload, so the application must stay within the rated horsepower. It is not usable on 200 V or 208 V systems.

Questions about this item
How does the 40 °C maximum ambient temperature affect continuous operation?
The motor is rated for continuous duty up to 40 °C ambient; sustained temperatures above that limit will trigger the automatic thermal protection and shut the motor down.
What is the steady-state current draw and heat output at full load?
At full load the motor draws 4.7 A at 115 V AC, producing heat consistent with a 1/3 HP PSC design in an open air-over enclosure.
Which capacitor and mounting hardware must be supplied by the installer?
A permanent-split capacitor matched to the 1/3 HP 115 V rating and ring or stud mounting hardware for the 56Z frame are required but not included.
