What is Service Factor?
 Reply

A  Answered on 1/11/2012 by InyoPools Product Specialist Patrick P.

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 need to replace a common motor ao smith b855 2hp 56y, does it matter what pump the motor is driving,except for gaskets ,seal and o rings , and is there a universal gasket seal kit
 Reply

A  Answered on 1/29/2020 by InyoPools Product Specialist Joe S.

It would not matter for the pump as long as the specs match what is currently installed. For the seals and gaskets we would need the information off the pump housing in order to find that information.

I have a Century Centurion part # 7-177476-20 pump that I need to replace and I am trying to make sure that this pump is the proper replacement pump. Thank you

Hi, Robert. This B855 motor can be used as a replacement if you have 230 volts.

Is this a replacement for my B855? I have a "0" at the beginning of 0-177897-22. The site shows "7" and "8" but no "0". All spec's look the same. Also, what is the "GO" kit number for this? Please see photos

A  Answered on 1/8/2021 by InyoPools Product Specialist Hector F.

Hi Curtis, yes, this is the correct replacement motor for the motor included in your photo. You will also need a Pentair Whisperflo seal kit when you replace your motor. We put together this Video on How to Replace a Pool Pump Motor which you may find helpful when you tackle this project.

My old pump motor was running really loud.

Written on 9/1/2021 by Guest

Ordered a new motor and got it really fast. Then I took my old motor off, then the impeller, and all the other parts. Then put it all on the new motor. I wired and put it back on and now my pool is going again.
