Description
Dayton 3M328A Shaded Pole AC Gear Motor 13.5 RPM 200 In-Lb 1/20 HP 115V 60Hz
The Dayton 3M328A is a single-phase shaded pole AC gear motor rated for continuous-duty operation at an exceptionally low output speed of 13.5 RPM with a full-load torque of 200 inch-pounds. It integrates a shaded pole induction motor with an integral gearbox in a compact, direct-coupled assembly. This unit came out of a chemical mixer application and one example remains mounted on its original corrosion-resistant base.

Applications
Shaded pole gear motors like the Dayton 3M328A are designed for applications requiring very low shaft speeds and high torque from a simple, self-contained AC drive with no external speed controller needed. The shaded pole design is among the simplest and most reliable AC motor configurations — it has no brushes, no start capacitor, and no centrifugal switch, making it well-suited to unattended continuous-duty service. At 13.5 RPM and 200 in-lb of torque, this motor is used in slow-speed mixing, agitating, conveying, valve actuation, turntable drives, display rotators, and industrial process equipment where a steady, low-speed output is required. Its previous service in a chemical mixer highlights its suitability for harsh or chemically aggressive environments, particularly when paired with a corrosion-resistant mounting base as shown. Dayton gear motors of this type are a long-running staple of the Dayton/Grainger catalog and remain a standard solution for OEM and replacement slow-speed drive applications across food processing, laboratory, and light industrial settings.
This Dayton 3M328A Shaded Pole AC Gear Motor was pulled from a chemical mixer and has not been bench-tested at our facility, but it came out of a working operational environment where it was previously in use. The motor and gearbox show corrosion consistent with chemical exposure — the output coupling hub and surrounding flange are noticeably rusted, and there is general grime and residue on the housing and base. The wiring lead and 3-pin connector are intact. One unit is still mounted on a corrosion-resistant base; a second unit is available without a base.
