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.

I'm trying to replace the motor on my pool pump but all these numbers and abbreviations on the motor label are really confusing me. What do they mean?

Hi William, the correct replacement motor for your motor catalog B980 is the B981. When replacing a pool motor we do suggest a Seal Kit. Could you send us a few photos of your pump so we can suggest the proper seal kit? If so then please take a wide shot of the complete pump to include the pipes going in and out of the pump. To supply photos simply click the reply link below and upload your photos. Once we get those photos we can make the proper recommendation for your seal kit.

I need to replace my pool pump B980 and per my understanding the new version is B981. Can you let me know which seals to add and if any other components are needed. Pics attached! Thanks a lot.
Hello Juergen. The replacement motor for your B980 is NOT the B981. The B981 is rated for 115VAC only. The B980 is rated for 230VAC only. The more appropriate replacement is the Century Motors 1.0 HP Dual Speed Full Rate Motor model B2982. Century 1.0 HP Square Flange 56Y Dual Speed Full Rate Motor - B2982 From the photo provided, it appears that your pump is a Jandy Flo Pro model FHPM. Attached please find an exploded parts diagram for the Jandy Flo Pro. Jandy FloPro FHPM Series Pump You will need parts, key 5 & 13. Please verify your pump manufacturer/model.
