What is Service Factor?
Reply
Service Factor(SF) is a multiplier that when multiplied by the horsepower of the motor indicates the total permissible horsepower loading that may be carried when the motor is operating at rated voltage and frequency. The most important thing to remember when replacing a motor is that the replacement motor's horsepower times its service factor must be equal to or greater than the original motor's horsepower times its service factor. The Service Factor rating can be found on the motor label. See Step 4 of our How to Read a Pool Motor Label guide.

Will this motor work with my Hayward Tristar SP3215EE pump?
My current motor is a Century SP3215z1be.

Hello, yes based on the Hayward Tristar SP3215EE pump you can use the Hayward Pool Products Hayward TriStar 1.5 HP Full Rate EE Dual Speed 208-230v Motor - SPX3215Z2BER . We also do suggest when changing the motor to order the Tune Up Kit Hayward TriStar/EcoStar - GOKIT81.

Please confirm the motor is Class F insulation and 60C ambient. Some alternate Hayward data indicates 50 C. Also considering trying a 3210 impeller to see if any reduction on noise, increase motor life (less load) and still adequate flow for our needs. My understanding is that only the impeller needs to be changed (Correct?). Any concerns with this operation other than 3215 motor being somewhat oversized if we stay with the 3210 impeller?

Hi Drew. Our current information on this motor has this as Class F insulation and 60 degrees C ambient. You can use a higher horsepower on a lower horsepower impeller, but you will be using more electricity than you otherwise would with the properly sized motor. If your electricity is expensive it can add up over the life of the motor.We would recommend a variable-speed unit if you are looking for a quiet pump. You could use this V-Green 2.7 HP Square Flange 48Y Variable Speed Motor - ECM27SQU and the Impeller w/ Screw 2.5 THP - SPX3220C and run it at a lower speed. You would probably not even know it was running when it is on and you would be saving on your electric bill.
