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.

Hi, How do we tell which seals to purchase with this replacement motor? There is not a label on the front housing.
Reply
Hello- The seals will be based off of the model of the pump not the motor. If you can not find a label on the front housing we would need to see if we can find a part number on the impeller or pump lid to try to identify the pump. If not you can send a picture to upload@inyopools.com.

This shows to replace my Jandy JHPU 1.5 (part # 7-193632-24) but the motor I have has a capacitor on top. This is shown on the detail drawing, but not shown in the photo. Does this motor come with the capacitor?

Hello Dan- the Motor 56j Thrd Up 1.5 Hp (b229se) 5212x would be the replacement motor you will need. There is no capacitor on top of this replacement motor.

what seal do I need for this pump replacement

Hi. In order to locate the correct seal for your pump, we will need to know the pump housing model. If you're unable to locate the pump housing model you can email us photos of the housing so that we can identify it.

I ordered a 5212X motor to replace the motor on my Jandy JHPU 1.5HP pump today which I think is the correct motor. I noted that your 5212X motor drawing shows that it is a CW rotation. My existing motor as viewed looking at the impeller end of the shaft rotates in a CCW manner. Did I order the incorrect motor ? Thanks.

Hi, Chris. This B229SE motor is the correct replacement motor for the JHPU1.5 Pump.

My pump was a 2005 Jandy JHPU 1.5 HP unit.
1, Turned power off to the pump control panel
2. Opened suction basket lid and vented filter housing to drain system back to inground pool
3. Removed 6 pump flange bolts and pulled pump/motor assembly from pump body
4. Noted 1 diffuser flange screw missing and the other loose due to both brass thread inserts corroded away in mounting plate assembly. Removed diffuser and cone from mounting plate.
5. removed motor end cap to access shaft wrench flat.
6. put wrench on flats to hold shaft still and removed Left Hand thread impeller lock screw
7. removed Right Hand threaded impeller from motor shaft
8. removed 4 bolts holding mounting plate to motor, then removed mounting plate from motor
9. turned power to the pump panel back on, closed the motor breakers then turned on the motor to check.
10. motor sounded like it had gravel in it and tripped on motor overload heater after approx. 20 seconds. So I knew my motor was bad, then disconnected the power again. Since the motor was 12 years old and showed obvious signs of deterioration, I looked for a replacement motor.
11. found what I needed on INYO Pools website, asked a couple of questions and got confirmation that motor replacement was correct for what I had and then made the purchase.
12. ordered up new seals, mounting plate and diffuser plate w/cone along with the new motor and reversed the disassembly.
13. to make the installation easier, I purchased new wire, conduit, fittings and connectors and wired up the motor & put the pump assembly together on the bench where it was easy to work.
14. carried the assembly with the 6 foot conduit and wiring all connected to the motor out to where the pool equipment was,
15. made the electrical connections in the control panel & bonding wires, bumped the motor to verify correct rotation, turned the power back off then installed the pump with new gasket into the pump housing.
16. primed the system and turned the power back on & started it up, checked for leaks and I am now one happy camper thanks to the folks at INYO. Motor is quiet and runs like a champ.
17. purchased a motor cover from the local pool supply store and installed over the motor to protect it from the weather as the installation instructions recommended.

I removed the motor and all attachments on the front of motor , Seal plate, difuser, impeller and seals and replaced all of them with new ones after watching several of the INYO videos on how to replace each one. The video's really helped and made the replacement pretty easy.

(5 out of 5 stars) Great pump pay attention when switching from 230 to 115
Reviewed By: Inyo Customer ()
Pump works great. Had some difficulty with wiring it up because the pump kept tripping the breaker in the house. Turns out the issue occurred when I switched the volts from 230 to 115. Very “ tight” area and when I moved the switch as directed by the manufacturer a corner of the plastic casing of the switch was actually touching the backside of the screw used to connect the neutral line. As a result the breaker in the main panel box tripped every time I turned it on. Once I adjusted the switch from the manufacturer the pump turned right on. Support from INYOPools has been fantastic. Thanks for the help.

This motor is the original equipment on my pool pump, my first motor was DOA so I went on line and explained that the motor was tripping the house breaker and right away INYOpools sent me a replacement that I tell you runs perfect and very quiet. INYOpools is not at fault for the first motor but the factory should have checked that it ran, yes I had to hire an electrician thinking that it was my wiring or something but again INYOpools not at fault on this one it was the lack of QC at the factory.

(5 out of 5 stars) Best price I found online
Reviewed By: Inyo Customer ()
I bought this to replace the exact same model that worked great for 7 years. This was the best price I found online and customer support online chat was very helpful with a few questions I had. So far the motor is working great and is very quiet; I have to check sometimes if it's even on b/c it's so quiet. Very happy so far with my purchase.

You guys are amazing. Our pump went out. I took a picture of what we had and Inyo pools told me the which pump to buy and parts needed for install. And the shipping was fast. Can’t thank you enough... Install was easy.
