Product details

The U.S. Motors Affinity AVSS3 is a 3 HP variable speed replacement motor for pool pumps, running on 230 volts at 60 Hz in a 56Y square flange TEFC frame.

Motor and control in one

The Affinity is a programmable motor and control together. The maker describes it as a high efficiency pool pump motor built to be an easy field replacement, one that can be wired with minimal or no modification to what is already there. That matters on a retrofit, where the alternative is often re-plumbing or adding a separate drive enclosure.

Why variable speed is worth the swap

A single speed motor turns the same water at the same rate whether the pool needs it or not. A programmable motor lets you run long and slow for filtering and step up only when you need the flow, which is where the running cost difference shows up over a season.

Before you order

Check the frame and flange on the motor you are removing. This is a 56Y square flange unit, and it needs a 230 volt, 60 Hz supply.

Questions and answers

What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.

What does the Affinity control add over a plain motor?
It makes the motor programmable. Instead of one fixed speed, you set the speeds and run times the pool actually needs.
Will it fit my existing pump?
It is a 56Y square flange TEFC motor built as a drop in field replacement, and it is meant to be wired with minimal or no modification. Confirm your pump uses a 56Y square flange motor before ordering.
What power supply does it need?
230 volts at 60 Hz.
Is the speed control a separate box?
No. The Affinity is supplied as a combined motor and control assembly.
