1 hp Jet Pump Motor 56J Frame
This Dayton motor delivers one horsepower for residential jet-pump installations. The 56J frame and 6.5 inch body diameter fit standard pump housings. A drip-cover kit and water slinger are included for vertical mounting. It is designed for 60 Hz single-phase supply.
Capacity and Headroom
Full-load current is 13.2 amps at the lower voltage and 6.8 or 6.6 amps at the higher voltage, giving adequate torque for typical shallow-well duty. Standard-efficient design and Class B insulation limit continuous operation to a maximum ambient temperature of 40 degrees Celsius. Open dripproof enclosure requires protection from direct spray and debris.
Interface and Practical Limits
The capacitor-start design needs a compatible start capacitor and centrifugal switch not supplied with the motor. 316 stainless steel shaft resists corrosion in water applications. Ball bearings support radial loads from the pump impeller. California Proposition 65 warning applies due to contained chemicals.

Questions about this item
Will the 56J frame and 6.5 in body diameter let this motor bolt onto my existing jet pump bracket?
The 56J frame and 6.5 in body diameter match common jet pump mounting patterns, so the motor should align with standard brackets that accept those dimensions.
How can I confirm the motor is running correctly once it is wired for 60 Hz power?
At full load the motor should draw 13.2 amps on the low-voltage connection or 6.8 to 6.6 amps on the high-voltage connection, and the open dripproof enclosure should stay within the 40 °C maximum ambient temperature rating.
Does the box include the dripcover kit and water slinger, or do I need to order them separately?
The dripcover kit for vertical mounting and the water slinger are included with the motor, so no separate purchase is required for those items.
