Dayton 6XH52BG Belt Drive Motor Split-Phase ODP 1/2HP 1725rpm
Split-phase 1/2 hp motor runs at 1725 rpm on 115 V AC for fan and blower duty
- 1/2 hp power drives fans and blowers efficiently
- Split-phase single-phase design suits standard 115 V AC supply
- 1725 rpm nameplate speed matches common HVAC requirements
- Open drip-proof enclosure protects windings in dry indoor areas
- 25 service factor allows continuous duty at 40 °C ambient
Motor Specifications
The Dayton 6XH52BG is a 1/2 hp belt-drive motor built for fan and blower applications. It runs on 115V AC single-phase power at 60 Hz and delivers a nameplate speed of 1,725 RPM. The split-phase design provides continuous-duty operation with a 1.25 service factor for demanding HVAC tasks.
Upgrade Considerations
This unit replaces failed or undersized motors in existing fan and blower assemblies where a 56CZ frame C-face mount is required. The jump is worth it when the original motor lacks the 8.6 A full-load rating or the 40 °C ambient-temperature tolerance needed for sustained operation. Open drip-proof enclosure suits clean, dry indoor environments.
Fit And Limits
The motor suits technicians servicing HVAC equipment that demands a 2 7/16 in. shaft and reversible CW/CCW rotation. It is not for buyers who need thermal overload protection, a different voltage, or an enclosed housing for wet or dirty locations. Builders requiring multi-speed control or a smaller frame should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item
What frame size and shaft length does this 56CZ motor need for mounting?
The motor uses a 56CZ frame with a C-Face mount and a shaft length of 2 7/16 in., so the driven equipment must match that face pattern and shaft reach.
How do I wire the split-phase motor for reversible rotation, and what mistake should I avoid?
Connect the 115 V supply to the main and start windings per the nameplate diagram; swapping the start-winding leads reverses rotation, but never energise both windings simultaneously without the centrifugal switch engaged.
When should I plan to replace the bearings on this continuously rated motor?
With continuous duty at 40 °C max ambient and no thermal protection, inspect bearings annually and replace them at the first sign of noise or excess heat to avoid sudden failure.
