Product details
The Century USN1202 is an energy efficient, max rated pool pump motor rated 2.0 HP with a 1.20 service factor, wired for 208-230V.
Reading a max rated motor
Max rated means the nameplate horsepower and the service factor are quoted at their maximum together. That is why this one is listed as 2.0 HP with a 1.20 service factor rather than by horsepower alone. When you replace a motor, match both figures against the old nameplate, because two motors with the same horsepower and different service factors are not the same motor.
Voltage and fit
This is the 208-230V build. Confirm what the equipment pad is wired for before ordering, since a motor is not something you want to find out about after it is bolted on. Century shows USN1202 in the Hayward NorthStar pump parts diagram covering units manufactured after 2008.
Do the seal while you are there
The shaft seal and the seal plate o-ring are separate parts. A motor swap is the only time the pump wet end is already open, so fit fresh ones then rather than pulling it all apart again a month later.
