Product details
The Century H637 is a square flange, full rated 2HP three phase pool pump motor. It runs on 208, 230 or 460 volts at 60 Hz, turns 3450 RPM on a 56Y frame, and carries a 1.30 service factor for 2.6 total horsepower.
Three phase, not household power
This is a commercial motor. Three phase service is what you find at a hotel, a club, a municipal pool or a light industrial site, not at a typical residence. Before ordering, confirm what is actually feeding the pad. A three phase motor cannot be made to run on single phase power by rewiring it.
Full rated versus up rated
Full rated means the 2HP on the nameplate is the honest horsepower before the service factor is counted. Multiply by the 1.30 service factor and you get the 2.6 THP figure. That distinction matters when you are matching a replacement to an existing pump, because an up rated motor of the same total horsepower carries a lower nameplate rating.
Fitting it
The square flange 56Y frame is the standard pool pump mount, and it bolts to a large share of wet ends without adapters. Check the flange style and the shaft on the motor you are replacing. Round flange and C face motors share the 56Y frame designation but do not interchange with a square flange.
