HVAC Motor for Room Air Conditioners
The Dayton 5WJC0 is a single-phase permanent split capacitor motor rated at one-tenth horsepower for 115 volt AC supply. It suits replacement or service work on residential room air conditioners where a four-speed direct-drive unit is specified.
Thermals and Power Draw
Automatic thermal protection and Class B insulation support continuous duty in ambient temperatures up to 60 degrees Celsius. The motor draws 1.62 amps at full load on a 60 hertz supply, running at 1050 RPM nameplate speed across its four selectable speeds.
Cradle Base Mounting and Long Shaft
A horizontal cradle base and a ten-and-a-half inch shaft allow direct coupling to blower wheels in tight cabinets. The 59 inch lead length gives routing flexibility, while the open air-over enclosure and reversible rotation simplify installation without rewiring.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 59 in leads on the cradle-base motor?
Mount the 42Y frame horizontally on the cradle base, route the 59 in leads to the terminal block, and secure the 10 1/2 in shaft to the blower wheel before tightening the set screw.
What maintenance will the open air-over motor need?
The auto thermal protection and Class B insulation are maintenance-free; only periodic cleaning of the open enclosure and checking the 1.62 A full-load amp draw are required.
What limits continuous operation at 60 °C ambient?
The 1.0 service factor and auto thermal protection will trip first if the 1/10 hp motor sustains full load at the 60 °C maximum ambient temperature.
