Dayton 6K313 Farm Duty Motor Cap Start TEFC 2hp 1740rpm 115/230V 1 Phase

SKU CH-R735-T7ZM1

Single-phase farm-duty motor delivers 2 hp at 1740 rpm on 115/230 V power

  • Product typeElectrical
  • 2 hp output for demanding farm equipment
  • Capacitor-start design delivers strong starting torque
  • TEFC enclosure protects windings from dust and moisture
  • Dual-voltage 115/230 V wiring suits existing circuits
  • 1740 rpm speed matches common implement requirements

Farm-Duty 2 HP Motor

The Dayton 6K313 is a single-phase, capacitor-start motor rated at 2 horsepower and 1740 rpm. It operates on 115/230 V power and uses a totally enclosed fan-cooled housing. This unit suits agricultural equipment, conveyors and pumps that need reliable torque in dusty or damp conditions.

Upgrade From Smaller Single-Phase Units

Replacing a 1 HP or 1.5 HP motor with this 2 HP model adds headroom for heavier loads without changing to three-phase supply. The jump is worth it when existing wiring is single-phase only and the driven machine regularly stalls or overheats under peak demand.

Handles Steady 2 HP Loads

At 1740 rpm the motor delivers full rated torque for continuous fan, blower or pump duty. It runs out of capacity if the application requires sustained overload beyond 2 HP, variable-speed control or three-phase efficiency gains.

Questions about this item

What frame size and mounting pattern does the 6K313 motor use for installation?

The 6K313 motor uses a standard NEMA frame with a rigid base mounting pattern. Verify the exact frame number on the nameplate to match your equipment's bolt-hole spacing and shaft height before purchasing.

How do I wire the 115/230V dual-voltage motor correctly for my supply voltage?

Open the conduit box and follow the wiring diagram on the nameplate. For 115V connect the leads in parallel; for 230V connect them in series. Ensure the capacitor leads remain attached to the start winding as shown.

When should I replace the start capacitor on this 2hp farm duty motor?

Replace the start capacitor if the motor hums but fails to reach 1740rpm, trips the overload repeatedly, or shows a bulging or leaking capacitor case. Use only the exact µF and voltage rating listed on the capacitor label.
