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?

On my century model B2982 how do I change the motor direction? Motor is currently running CCW, I need it to run CW. Thanks

Hello Clint. The Century Motor model B2982 only rotates in a counter-clockwise rotation. There is no option to change to a clockwise rotation.

Will this fit a pentair superflo?

Hello Brandon. The Century Motors 1.0 HP Full Rate Dual Speed Motor B2982 is compatible with the Pentair Superflo Pool Pump. It is recommended that the motor shaft seal, seal plate gasket, and the diffuser o-ring be replaced concurrent with the new motor. The GOKIT78 contains the necessary parts to complete this project. GOKIT78 Attached please find an exploded parts diagram for the Pentair Superflo for reference. Pentair SuperFlo Pump
