- C-Face 56C frame fits standard pump flanges
Jet Pump Motor 1 1/2 HP
The Dayton 5K469 is a C-face jet pump motor rated at 1 1/2 horsepower for 60 Hz operation. It suits residential or light-commercial water systems that need a standard 56C frame. The open dripproof enclosure and gray finish are built for indoor pump rooms or sheltered outdoor locations.
Installation notes
The motor ships with a dripcover kit for vertical mounting, a water slinger and a shaft key included in the box. Ball bearings and Class B insulation simplify alignment and wiring. The open enclosure requires protection from direct spray or falling debris to avoid moisture ingress.
Capacity and headroom
Full-load current draws 18.2 amps at low voltage or 9.2 to 9.1 amps at high voltage, giving installers two wiring options. Standard-efficient design and a 40 °C maximum ambient temperature set the thermal limit for continuous duty. Buyers who need higher horsepower, a totally enclosed fan-cooled housing or three-phase power will need a different motor.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the motor is running correctly after installation?
Check that the motor starts smoothly, reaches full speed without excessive noise or vibration, and that the full-load current draws near 18.2 A on low voltage or 9.1–9.2 A on high voltage while the frame temperature stays within the 40 °C ambient limit.
What components are included and what must be purchased separately?
The box contains the jet pump motor with C-face mounting, a drip-cover kit for vertical mounting, a water slinger, and a shaft key; you will need to supply the power wiring, circuit protection, mounting hardware, and the pump impeller assembly separately.
Which voltage configuration should I select for my 60 Hz supply?
The motor is dual-voltage: wire it for low voltage to draw 18.2 A full-load, or for high voltage to draw 9.1–9.2 A; choose the wiring that matches your available supply voltage.
