I want to replace my K48M2PA105 pump motor (which is close to dead) with this unit VGreen ECM 27SQU but I see that it is a 56Y frame. Is this adaptable to my existing pump (48Y)? Also my existing motor is a 2HP while this unit shows max rating of 2.7. Is this the appropriate HP to replace the old 2hp single speed?
Thanks
Reply
This VS Motor would be a fine alternative. 56Y frame Square Flange motors are 1/2" wider (body diameter) than 48Y frame with Identical hole Spacings on the Flange. They are inter-changeable. The 2.7 HP of the ECM27SQU is the MAX it can run. You will decide, when setting it up, how powerful it will be. That is the nature of the variable speed.

I have a Jandy stealth SHPF-2.0 pump single speed. I want to add this motor to reduce energy consumption. If this motor is added do I need to change the impeller? Will performance be equivalent to a Jandy epump? Will I get the max flow of a 2.5hp? Single pump pool use the pump for circulation of pool and spa, spa jets (in spa mode) and pool vacuum.
Reply
Hello Scott - This motor can be added to your SHPF-2.0, This would essentially convert it to an e-Pump. The impeller would not need to be changed. This motor would be able to provide the flow of a 2.5 total hp.

I have a USQ1202 motor on my pump. The system is controlled with an Aqualink RS4 controller. How would the variable speed pump tie into the control system that controls the spa, pool cleaner, heater, valves and current pump?
Thanks

Hi Steve, Your Aqualink RS4 controller will only tell the motor to turn On/Off, then whatever settings you have programmed into the motor will take priority until the controller turns it off.

will this work as a replacement for the motor and control for a hayward spx3400z1ecm ecostar pump motor and control?
Reply
Hello, Chip. It is best recommended to replace the Motor Assembly SPX3400Z1ECM and the Drive-VAR SPX3400DR or Drive-VAR-SVRS SPX3400DRVR with the Original Hayward Components, in order to not lose any design features from the Manufacturer. It is also important to take into consideration if you have an Automated System, you will need to continue to use the Original Hayward Products to get the total functionality of both systems. The 2.7 HP Variable Speed Pool Pump Motor Square Flange PART# ECM27SQU will work as a replacement motor for the EcoStar but will not perform at the same levels as the originally designed equipment. Do not forget to replace the Shaft Seal PART# 5112-216 any time you replace the motor on your Hayward EcoStar Pump.

I have a 1 1/2 hp Hayward super-pump on a 40K in-ground pool. The pump has always had problems priming; it usually takes 30-45 minutes or longer to prime and takes longer each year. Lately it can run one hour without priming; is it likely that the motor still runs but something else such as the impeller is effecting it's ability to prime? Should I install a check valve, a larger pump etc...??
Reply
Hello. Yes, there are other parts internal that can cause the pump not to prime properly or not at all. I recommend to take the pump apart and inspect the Diffuser O-Ring, the Diffuser, and the Impeller, those parts all aid in priming the pump. Ideally, if any, or all of the items are damaged/cracked they will need to be replaced. Click here to view the Hayward Super Pump Parts. Also, 40k is a good size pool, that may require a more heavy duty pump. It may be worth reviewing the Hayward Super II, Energy Efficient Pump product line (EE= Energy Efficient).

Will this replace teh motor on a 2HP Century motor Hayward super pump, and will it work with a Jandy RS8 controller (RS485 protocol)?

Hi. The Super Pump requires the ECM27CU variable speed motor and will work with the Jandy RS8 controller RS485 protocol. You will also need the Hayward Super Pump Tune Up Kit GOKIT3 or GOKIT3SALT.

I want to replace my Centurion 177897-22 motor with this model for a salt water pool. The motor connects to a WhisperFlow pump. Motor connects to a Pentair ComPool LX3810 power center. Will this pump work in this application independent of the power center? What else do I need for installation?
Reply
Yes, this would be a correct motor replacement, and it can run independently of the controls as long as there is electrical current provided to it. Also, we recommend replacing the seals and gaskets. For a standard chlorine pool it is A GOKIT32 and for a saltwater pool, it is a GOKIT32SALT.

I just ordered the V-Green 2.7 HP Square Flange 48Y VS Motor to upgrade my Pentair WhisperFllo WFE-8 pool pump. I know that my current motor is a Square Flange 56Y motor so how will I accommodate the smaller diameter Motor body of the 48Y physical size motor? I think it is only 1/2 inch smaller than my current motor so what should I use to mount it. How will I adjust my old base to accommodate the new motor or does it come with a mounting base maybe?

I have an intelliflo 3.3kw VS pump. Motor control got wet thru button pad so now its dead. will this V-green be

considering this to replace my 5 year old EcotechEZ VS3hp motor. I know that product has had issues (Recall, etc) and mine is now cutting out with a high amps message. My question is between the 2.7 hp and the 1.6. My pool plumbing is old (1.5”) and the original 1 hp SR Dura Glas pump. Tech told me the system was undersized for the 33,000 gal pool. Fast forward to a new pentair 420 cart filter and Ecotech pump today. Worked great but I have had other techs tell it may be too much hp for pipe.
Hi, Andrewk. Your pipe size is too small to use with a 2.7 or 3 hp pump. The max water flow that you will able to get is about 86 GPM.

What does Speed:Variable mean?
How many options are there? Is it high/low or is there more than one option?
How does the pump know which one to use and when?
Reply
Hi. The term variable speed is a type of motor that is controlled by a variable frequency drive. This drive allows the motor to operate at various speed and voltage. Variable speed motors usually have 3 or more programmable speed versus a dual speed motor has only two. You will need to program the controller to switch speeds.

This pump work with pentair challenger 1-1/2 impeller
Yes this would work but if you do not swap out your impeller then you would only be getting the output of the 1.5 HP and you would not take advantage of the higher HP range from 1.5 HP to 2.7 HP. Because of this, I would suggest the ECM16SQU Square Flange Replacement Motor 1.65 HP. You will also need a Pentair Challenger Seal Kit when you replace your motor.
Reply
Patrick I sent another question earlier about the 1.65 and told I need the 2.7 That question and answer is under the 1.65 motor so I am confused
Hi Scott, That motor information helps a lot. Your pump has a true HP of 2.2 HP so if you stayed with the same impeller you would need to go the 2.7 HP motor and if you wanted to go to the 1.65 HP then you would need to replace your impeller with this. 1.5 HP Uprated Challenger Impeller

I have submitted questions for both 1.6 and the 2.7 century v green variable pumps so let me give the whole picture I have 1.5 pump and 1.5 impeller need to know which pump works better for me and do I need to replace impeller 30 to 32000 gallon pool
Hi, Scott. Based on the original pump model CHII-N2-1/1/2A, if using the original impeller and diffuser the ECM16SQU VS motor can be used. However, if the pump Impeller and Diffuser was changed to match the current B2983 motor, then you will need to use this ECM27SQU. You will also need to get the Challenger CH Tune Up Kit - GOKIT5 or GOKIT5SALT.

Hi -
Wanted to make sure the ECM27SQU is the optimal variable speed motor for this pump - see photos.

Hi. It is not. I'm unable to read the motor specs so I can't confirm which one of these variable speed motor will work, PL1116, EMC16CU, ECM27CU. You will also need to get the Super II Pump Tune Up Kit - GOKIT2 or GOKIT2SALT.

Thanks Patrick! I’ve also ordered the additional items you have recommended. When the pool was installed, the prior owner installed a pump that was undersized. This new motor is in alignment with the pool. We have an easy touch system and the goal is to simply swap out the old pump with this new one. Here’s the photos of the easy touch system currently in place:
Thanks, James that is great! You will do all of the programming of the pump speeds and cycle times directly on the onboard controller on the motor. You will then set the Easytouch to power your pump on and off and then the speeds you have set on the motors controller will take over from there. You will not be able to adjust the speeds of the pump from the Easytouch. So from the onboard controller on the motor, you could program the motor to run at 1,750 RPM's from 8AM to 8PM and from your Easytouch you could program it to power your pump on at 8 AM and Power it off at 8PM

Hello David. The transition to a lower horsepower motor is possible with the Pentair (previously Sta-Rite) P2R Dura-Glas Pool Pump. The reduction in motor horsepower will require a change in the impeller and possibly a change in the diffuser. Replacement motor shaft seal, seal plate o-ring, and diffuser o-ring are contained in the GOKIT6 for pumps pre 1998 or GOKIT54 for pumps 1998 to present. Attached please find an exploded parts diagram for the Dura-Glas Pump.

If you upgrade to the ECM27SQU please verify that the current timer or breaker is for 208-230 Volts. One of the pump seals 5020-086 or 5020-087 see key#5 https://www.inyopools.com/parts_jandy_stealth_2006_current_shpf_shpm.aspx?Keywords=shpm+parts in the parts page to verify against the SHPM15 serial number for which to order.

Hi. I have a single speed Century pump HSQ220. Would this motor be a direct replacement? Which set of o-rings do I need?
Thanks in advance!
Hello Stephen. The Century Motors V-Green 2.7 HP Variable Speed Motor model ECM27QU is a compatible replacement for the Century Motors 2.0 HP Up Rate Motor model HSQ220. The replacement motor shaft seal, gaskets, and o-rings would be specific to the manufacturer/model of the pump this will be installed on and not the motor ECM27SQU. Please provide pump manufacturer/model information and a recommendation can be made.

Will this pump work with mu Aqua Link Jandy pump?

Hi Dale, you will need to install the V-Green Automation Adapter Kit - 2517501-001 to control and experience the full variable speed capability of the V-Green 2.7 HP Variable Speed Motor - ECM27SQU through your existing AquaLink automation system.

Would this motor work for a replacement on a Jandy FHPM2.5? The original motor has burned out and I would like to change to variable speed if possible.
I have existing iAquaLink controls but I am not sure if I care to have full control on the new variable speed pump if it is possible to run 24/7 at a lower speed.
Hi Matthew, the V-Green 2.7 HP Square Flange 48Y Variable Speed Motor - ECM27SQU would be an excellent choice to replace the 2.5HP motor in your Jandy FHPM2.5 pump. We do not have a tune-up kit for that pump, but we recommend installing a new PS-4280 motor shaft seal when replacing the motor. You may also want to get the Backplate O-Ring , Diffuser & Impeller Hardware and some lubricant to ensure a long-lasting, leak-free installation.

Can this motor replace Pentair WFE-28/011519 with motor number 177451?

Hi Matt, yes, the V-Green 2.7 HP Variable Speed Motor - ECM27SQU would be a perfect replacement for the motor on your WFE-28 WhisperFlo pump - and it is Title 20 Compliant for California customers. Be sure to get a new Tune Up Kit Pentair/Purex Whisperflo - GOKIT32 if you have a freshwater pool or a Tune Up Kit Pentair/Purex Whisperflo Saltwater - GOKIT32SALT if you have a saltwater pool to ensure a long-lasting, leak-free installation.

I have a ECM27SQU where the interface screen has gone blank on me. What are my choices? Is installing one of those remote control also possible?

Thank you for contacting Inyo Pools, You can just replace the user interface but we are out of stock at this time with no re-stocking date. V-Green 270 User Interface - 2520652-001 and Century Motor VLink - VL100 will allow you to use it with your phone.

Do you have to upgrade the impeller with the variable speed motor?
Reply
Thank you for contacting Inyo Pools, It is not necessary to change the impeller or diffuser of the pump. However, to achieve the full 2.7HP you need to change them to the correct HP.

I currently have a Jandy Stealth SHPF1.5 that has a AO Smith 0-193994-06 Motor. The pump is currently controlled by a Compool CP-3800 controller. The pump motor has died. Can I change to this variable speed motor and connect it to my CP-3800? Do I need to add the Pentair RLY-LXD dual speed relay? Is there anything else I need to buy to make the swap clean?
Hi Russ, I am not sure what options are installed on your Compool system, but this V-Green 2.7 HP Square Flange 48Y Variable Speed Motor - ECM27SQU is able to be controlled from most of the newer automation systems by adding the V-Green Automation Adapter Kit - 2517501-001. Some older systems like your Compool might need to be upgraded (to the EasyTouch); the dual-speed relay would not work with the variable-speed motor.

I have this motor installed, with my Pentair whisperflo pump. I'm considering installing Pentair IntelliCenter automation system. Can this motor be controlled through the Pentair IntelliCenter?

Hi Manuj, the V-Green motors can be controlled by pool automation systems by adding this V-Green Automation Adapter Kit - 2517501-001. It will allow you the ability to control and experience the full variable speed capability of your V-Green motor through systems such as the Hayward Goldline Pro Logic, Pentair IntelliCenter & Easytouch, Jandy Aqualink, and Intermatic controls

Will this pump/motor work to replace the one I have now? Attached pictures. Also which are the o rings and impeller that I should replace while upgrading to this new motor?
Hello Oscar. The Century Motors 2.7 HP V-Green Variable Speed Motor is a compatible motor replacement for the Jandy FloPro Series Pump. It is recommended that the motor shaft seal Jandy Pump Shaft Seal and backplate o-ring Backplate O-ring be replaced concurrent with the new motor. There is no need to replace the impeller.

Will this motor work as a replacement for what I have here?
Hi Shawn, this V-Green 2.7 HP Variable Speed Motor would be a great replacement for the motor on your Jandy ePump. Note that you may also need to get the V-Green Automation Adapter Kit if you have your existing pump hooked up to an automation system. Otherwise, it will operate perfectly on its included timer. We recommend replacing the motor shaft seal when replacing the motor.

Hello Emanuel. The Hayward Pool Products Motor Assembly SPX3400Z1ECM is a motor only replacement part for the Hayward EcoStar 3400VSP Pool Pump. Motor Assembly - SPX3400Z1ECM The existing Motor Drive would be installed on the replacement motor. The Century Motors V-Green 2.7 HP Variable Speed Motor ECM27SQU is a replacement motor and drive in a single unit. (the existing Motor Drive would no longer be used) Both options would be acceptable. The GOKIT81 contains the necessary parts to complete the installation of either option. GOKIT81

I have an AO Smith B2848 1 HP pump and would like to upgrade to this variable speed pump. Is this this pump compatible? I would like the extra HP for a future spa install. Would I need any extra parts to install this pump? Otherwise I believe the swap is the ECM16SQU?
Hello Nick. The A. O. Smith 1.0 HP motor B2848 is a Full Rate motor with a total horsepower of 1.65 HP. The Century Motors V-Green 2.7 HP variable Speed Motor model ECM27SQU would be a compatible replacement motor for the B2848. Upgrading the pump Impeller would provide an increase in circulation in combination with the ECM27SQU. Upgrading the motor alone will not produce the desired result. Please provide pump manufacture/model information and a further recommendation can be made.

Looking to replace my Century 2.0HP 193987XCN motor with this variable speed. Since the 2.0HP RPM matches this at max (3450) do I need to do anything with the impeller? Also is the mounting and shaft compatible with the Jandy intake housing?
Hello Mark. The Century Motors V-Green 2.7 HP Variable Speed Motor model ECM27SQU is compatible with the Jandy PlusHP PHPM Pool Pump. An impeller change is not necessary. It is recommended that the motor shaft seal Jandy Pump Shaft Seal 5/8" - R0479400 and Backplate o-ring be replaced concurrent with the new ECM27SQU installation. Attached please find the Jandy PlusHP PHPM exploded parts diagram for reference. Jandy PlusHP PHPM

I have a tristar pump with a Century B2483 Motor on it currently. I would like to make the change to a variable speed but wanted to make sure the shaft sizes are the same and that I dont need to make any modifications to my pump end?

Hello Jerry. The Century Motors B2843 is rated at 2.6 total horsepower. The V-Green 2.7 HP Square Flange 48Y Variable Speed Motor - ECM27SQU would be the compatible variable speed motor/drive assembly for the Hayward TriStar. The Tune Up Kit Hayward TriStar/EcoStar - GOKIT81 contains the necessary seals and gaskets to complete this project. No adjustments to the pump end or plumbing connections are required.

Do I need to replace my impeller and diffuser to get the maximum flow with this 2.7hp motor? If so what are the correct part numbers.
Hello Christopher. The Century Motor model SQ1202 (per photo) has a total horsepower of 2.6 (horsepower of 2.0 X service factor of 1.3 = total horsepower of 2.6). The current Impeller and Diffuser have been factory selected for maximum flow per the pump motor's total horsepower. There is no need to change the impeller or diffuser when transitioning to the Century Motors V-Green 2.7 THP Variable Speed Motor.

Hi,
I want to upgrade to this model ECM27SQU when available. What kit do I need for my 20yo Challenger setup (see pics)? I have SWG which I read makes a diff on bearings.
Hello Tom, so the seal kit needed will depend on if your Pentair Challenger pool pump is a CH or a CF series. Since your particular pump does not have a visible model number on the plastic pump housing then you can also confirm what series that you have by getting the pump impeller or even diffuser part number off of one of those parts. With that part and performing a search to locate the Challenger parts diagram on our site, you will see that the series pump model is stated on that diagram.
