Farm-duty capacitor-start motor
The Leeson 110493.00 is a single-phase farm-duty motor built for continuous operation in agricultural and industrial settings. Its totally enclosed fan-cooled enclosure protects internal components from dust and moisture. The 56C face-mount design suits horizontal mounting on pumps, fans and conveyors. Manual thermal protection allows the operator to reset the motor after an overload event.
3/4 HP capacity and 1.15 service factor
At 3/4 HP the motor delivers 10.8 A at 115 V or 5.4 A at 208-230 V, with a 1.15 service factor providing headroom for intermittent peak loads. It runs at 1,725 RPM on a 60 Hz supply and is rated for continuous duty up to a maximum ambient temperature of 40 degrees Celsius. The nameplate confirms usability at 208 V but not at 200 V, so installers must verify the supply voltage before wiring.
Single-phase 115/208-230 V AC supply
The capacitor-start design requires a compatible single-phase 115/208-230 V AC source at 60 Hz; it cannot operate on three-phase power or at 200 V. Rotation is reversible between clockwise and counter-clockwise to match driven equipment. Insulation class B and the TEFC enclosure define the thermal and environmental limits of the motor, so applications exceeding 40 degrees Celsius ambient or requiring different enclosure types fall outside its rating.

Questions about this item
Will the 56C face mount line up with my existing 56-frame pump?
Yes, the 56C face mounting matches standard NEMA 56 dimensions so it bolts directly to your current pump.
How can I confirm the motor is running at the rated 1 725 RPM after installation?
Measure shaft speed with a tachometer; it should read 1 725 RPM at full load on 60 Hz power.
Does the box include a start capacitor and mounting hardware?
The motor ships with the internal capacitor installed; mounting bolts and a wiring diagram are included, but external capacitors are not required.
