Motor Specifications
The Dayton 5RHU0 is a permanent split capacitor motor rated at 1/3 hp with a nameplate speed of 825 rpm. It operates on 208-230V AC single-phase power at 60 Hz and draws between 1.0 and 2.2 full-load amps. The 48YZ frame unit includes a 5-inch shaft and 36-inch leads for wiring flexibility.
Application Suitability
This motor suits installations requiring four-speed control and continuous duty in ambient temperatures up to 60 degrees Celsius. Automatic thermal protection and Class B insulation support reliable long-term operation. It is not intended for applications needing sealed enclosures, higher horsepower ratings, or voltage supplies outside the 208-230V range.
Installation Requirements
The open air-over enclosure demands adequate airflow around the motor housing for cooling. Stud mounting allows all-angle positioning, while reversible CW/CCW rotation adapts to various blower or fan configurations. A compatible run capacitor and speed selector must be supplied separately to enable the four-speed function.

Questions about this item
What voltage supply and wiring are needed for this 208-230V AC motor?
Provide a 208-230V AC, 60 Hz single-phase supply. The motor draws 2.2 A at 1/3 hp and 1.0 A at 1/6 hp; use wire sized for that current and a compatible disconnect.
Will the 48YZ frame and 5 in shaft fit the mounting studs and blower wheel I already have?
The motor uses a 48YZ frame with stud mounting and a 5 in shaft; verify your blower wheel bore and stud pattern match those dimensions before installing.
How can I confirm the motor runs at the correct 825 RPM across all four speeds?
With power applied, use a contact or laser tachometer on the shaft; each speed tap should read approximately 825 RPM at full load, and the auto thermal protector must not trip during continuous operation.
