maximum horsepower (Hp x SF).
12. TIME: Time indicates the duty cycle of the motor.
Pool and spa motors are generally rated for
continuous duty.
13. AMB (Ambient Temperature): The maximum
ambient (surrounding) temperature in which the
motor is designed to operate. This temperature
is shown in Celsius rather than Fahrenheit.
14. INSUL CLASS (Insulation Classification):
The temperature rating of insulation used in the
construction of the motor. Most pool and spa
motors use a Class “B” insulation.
15. ENCL (Enclosure): Common enclosures used
include DP (dripproof) and TEFC (totally enclosed
fan cooled). Most pool and spa motors feature a
dripproof design, with “1081” features.
16. CODE: The NEMA code letter specifies locked
rotor kVA per Hp (volts multiplied by locked rotor
amps, divided by 1000 times rated HP).
17. SERIAL: The serial indicates the date of
manufacture, which often appears as year/month
combinations. Serial code information for each
pool and spa motor can be found in guides and
bulletins provided by the manufacturer (See p.55).
18. VOLTAGE DIAGRAM: This diagram provides
information on the correct electrical connections
to ensure proper operation of the motor.
19. WARNING: The warning at the bottom of the label
re-emphasizes that voltage can be hazardous.
Always TURN THE POWER OFF before working on
a pool or spa motor.
