HVAC Split-Phase Motor
The Dayton 6XH76 is a general-purpose single-phase motor built for HVAC control applications. It delivers 1/3 horsepower at 1,725 RPM on its high speed and 1/9 horsepower at 1,140 RPM on low speed. The unit operates on 115V AC at 60 Hz and carries a 1.35 service factor for continuous duty cycles.
Open Drip Proof Cradle Mount
The open drip proof enclosure allows airflow through the steel frame while resisting falling moisture, suited for indoor equipment rooms. A cradle base provides stable floor or platform mounting without requiring flange alignment. The keyed shaft ensures positive coupling to driven components and the motor rotates in either clockwise or counter-clockwise direction.
Dual Speed Replacement Unit
This motor replaces failed split-phase units in fan, blower or pump assemblies where two-speed operation is specified. The 56 frame dimensions match legacy mounting patterns so no structural modifications are needed. The jump is worth it when the original motor lacks thermal protection and the application runs continuously at up to 40 degrees Celsius ambient.

Questions about this item
What voltage and frequency does the 115V AC 60 Hz split-phase motor require?
It runs on 115V AC at 60 Hz single-phase power, drawing 6.1 amps at high speed and 3.5 amps at low speed.
What frame size and mounting type does the 56 frame cradle-base motor use?
The motor fits a NEMA 56 frame and mounts on a cradle base with a keyed steel shaft.
How do you wire the two-speed split-phase motor for CW or CCW rotation?
Connect the 115V supply to the appropriate speed tap (1725 or 1140 rpm) and swap the start-winding leads to reverse rotation.
