The 115 230 volt single phase motor is factory preset at 230 volts.
Pool pump amperage.
Will there be one circuit or more circuits.
Efficient quiet rugged single and two speed pool pumps.
Gas pool heaters will also typically have conduit from the time clock to carry power into the heater whereas pool heat pumps will require a dedicated breaker of substantial amperage usually 30 50 amps.
It is constructed of corrosion resistant reinforced thermoplastic.
Yes the label on your motor lists the voltage.
Inground pool pumps are commonly reversible in voltage with the exception of pumps 2hp or greater which require 220v.
One of the first places where pool owners want to look to determine their voltage is the motor label.
Here are some factors that must be considered to properly determine the circuit wiring for a pool pump and pool equipment.
From industry standard single speed pumps to energy efficient variable speed pumps all delivering powerful reliable performance.
Wiring a pool pump.
The goal is for the pump to sufficiently filter all the water in an 8 to 10 hour period according to pool supply world.
Superflo pumps feature thick walled body parts a heavy duty 56 square flange motor and highly engineered hydraulics superflo pumps silent running capability and small footprint allow it to easily drop into a compact equipment pad.
A pump s horsepower determines how quickly the pump can process all the water.
Sizing the circuit wiring for a pool pump.
What is the size of the pump and the amperage and voltage circuit requirements.
Whether you are replacing your pump upgrading your motor or replacing your pool light bulb at some point you will absolutely need to know if you have 115v or 230v.
Pumps will only draw as many amps as are required.
One is so you can know what size breaker is needed at the electric box and the other so you know what size of wire to run to the pool s pump.
Your pump motor label.
A pool pump motor which is drawing half the amps listed on its nameplate can indicate a problem with the windings or a lack of incoming current.
Amperage is the amount of electricity that runs through the electric wires.
You need to know this for two reasons.
Identify the pool equipment.
