What this motor replaces
The Dayton 3M265 is a 1/3 hp permanent-split-capacitor condenser fan motor built for HVAC equipment that calls for a 48YZ frame and 208-230 V single-phase power. It suits technicians and facility managers who need a direct drop-in for worn-out OEM units.
Steady output in high heat
Rated for continuous duty at up to 60 °C ambient, the motor delivers 1625 RPM at 3.1 A full-load current without thermal trips thanks to its Class B insulation and automatic reset protection. The open air-over enclosure relies on the application's airflow, so it runs coolest when mounted in the intended condenser airstream.
Flexible mounting, fixed wiring
A 6-inch shaft and cradle base allow horizontal or vertical shaft-up installation, while reversible rotation covers both CW and CCW requirements. The 48YZ frame bolts to standard cradle brackets, but the motor has no built-in capacitor or plug, so the installer must supply the correct run capacitor and hard-wire the leads.
