  • 1/6 HP output with 1.35 service factor handles continuous HVAC duty
  • Open dripproof enclosure suits indoor air-handling installations
  • 115 V AC supply draws 4.2 A at high speed and 3.1 A at low speed
  • 56CZ frame with 5/8 in shaft fits standard face-mount configurations

HVAC belt-drive motor

The Dayton 6XH54 is a split-phase belt-drive motor built for HVAC control applications. It delivers 1/6 HP at 1,140 rpm and a second speed of 1/15 HP at 850 rpm from a 115 V AC, 60 Hz supply. The 56CZ frame uses rolled-steel construction with an open dripproof enclosure rated for continuous duty up to 104 °F ambient.

Face-mount installation notes

The motor mounts via a 56CZ face with a 5/8 in. shaft and operates in any angle, allowing flexible positioning inside air-handling equipment. Rotation is field-reversible between CW and CCW. No thermal protection is fitted, so external overload safeguards must be provided by the installer. Full-load current draws 4.2 A on high speed and 3.1 A on low speed with a 1.35 service factor.

Suits two-speed fan and blower duty

This unit suits technicians replacing or specifying two-speed belt-driven blowers or fans in commercial HVAC systems where a 56CZ face mount and split-phase operation are required. It does not suit applications needing built-in thermal overload protection, inverter-duty insulation or enclosed enclosures for wet or dusty environments.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the motor is running at the correct 1140 rpm after installation?

Use a contact or laser tachometer on the 5/8 in. shaft while the motor is under load; the reading should settle at the nameplate 1140 rpm for the high-speed winding.

What comes with the 6XH54 motor and what must I supply separately?

The motor ships as a single unit with a 56CZ face mount and 5/8 in. shaft; you must provide the pulley or sheave, drive belt, 115 V AC supply wiring, overload protection, and any mounting hardware for your application.

Which speed should I select for my HVAC application — the 1140 rpm or the 850 rpm winding?

Choose the 1140 rpm winding (4.2 A) for standard airflow needs; switch to the 850 rpm winding (3.1 A) only when lower airflow and reduced current draw are required by the system design.
