Running longer hours at low speed generally moves the same water using far less electricity than shorter high-speed cycles, and the pump is noticeably quieter at the equipment pad.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #0e6e68;\"\u003eWhat Pump Does the Century SQS1202R Fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Century SQS1202R is a replacement motor, not a complete pump. Fitment is determined by the \u003cstrong\u003epump wet end\u003c\/strong\u003e and the original motor specifications. This motor is intended for compatible pumps that use a \u003cstrong\u003e48Y square flange motor with a threaded shaft\u003c\/strong\u003e operating on 230V.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt is commonly used as a replacement on square flange, threaded-shaft pumps such as many Sta-Rite Max-E-Glas, Max-E-Glas II, Dura-Glas, Dura-Glas II, Dyna-Glas and Dyna-Max models, certain Pentair WhisperFlo and Pinnacle pumps, Anthony AR2 series pumps, and a range of Red Jacket and Sears jet and pool pumps. Always confirm against your own motor label rather than the pump name alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen replacing a pool pump motor, do not match by horsepower alone. You should also verify the frame, flange type, voltage, shaft style, service factor or total horsepower, and the pump model. A motor can be the correct horsepower and still be wrong if the pump uses a different flange or shaft type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"border-left: 5px solid #e8712f; background: #fff6f0; padding: 16px 20px; margin: 24px 0; border-radius: 8px;\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3 style=\"margin-top: 0; color: #b9531d;\"\u003eATB Fitment Tip\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe SQS1202R is a \u003cstrong\u003emotor only\u003c\/strong\u003e.

A leaking shaft seal is one of the most common reasons pool pump motors fail. If the seal leaks, water can travel along the motor shaft and damage the bearings or electrical components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor best results, replace the shaft seal, inspect the impeller, check the diffuser and diffuser O-ring, and confirm the seal plate is not cracked before installing the new motor. Wire the motor for 230V, connect the low and high speed leads to your two-speed control, and follow all local electrical codes. Confirm rotation is counter-clockwise facing the shaft end — this motor is not reversible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #0e6e68;\"\u003eCommonly Replaced With This Motor\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePump shaft seal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSeal plate gasket or O-ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDiffuser O-ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eImpeller screw or impeller hardware, if used on the pump model\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo-speed timer, hi-lo switch, or two-speed control\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMotor mounting bolts, if existing hardware is corroded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDamaged seal plate or diffuser, if cracked or warped\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #0e6e68;\"\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs the Century SQS1202R a complete pool pump?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The SQS1202R is the replacement motor only. It does not include the pump wet end, basket housing, lid, seal plate, diffuser, impeller, shaft seal, or plumbing connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat horsepower is the Century SQS1202R?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SQS1202R is a full-rated 2.0 HP motor on high speed and 0.33 HP on low speed. With its 1.30 service factor it carries a total horsepower (THP) rating of 2.60.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs the SQS1202R 115V or 230V?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SQS1202R is 230V only. It is not a dual-voltage motor and cannot be rewired for 115V operation. Confirm your equipment pad is supplied with 230V before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat are the RPM and amp draw on each speed?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHigh speed runs at 3450 RPM and draws 11.3 amps. Low speed runs at 1725 RPM and draws 3.3 amps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes the SQS1202R come with a hi-lo speed switch?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. This motor ships less the hi-lo switch. A two-speed timer, two-speed toggle switch, or compatible automation control is required to operate both speeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs the SQS1202R a square flange motor?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The SQS1202R is a 48Y square flange motor with a 5\/8\" threaded stainless steel shaft. Confirm your existing motor uses the same frame and flange style before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat size is the SQS1202R motor?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe motor body measures 5-5\/8\" in diameter with an overall length of 13.81\". Confirm you have clearance at the equipment pad before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhich direction does the SQS1202R rotate?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRotation is CCWPE, meaning counter-clockwise when facing the shaft end. The motor is not reversible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eShould I replace the shaft seal when changing the motor?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Replacing the shaft seal is strongly recommended whenever a pool pump motor is replaced. A worn seal can leak water into the new motor and cause premature failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWill the SQS1202R fit my pump if the horsepower matches?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot always. Horsepower is only one part of motor matching. You also need to confirm the frame, flange type, shaft type, voltage, total horsepower, and pump model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I run my pool entirely on low speed?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany pools can handle most daily filtration on low speed, but high speed is still needed for tasks that require full flow, such as vacuuming, backwashing, running a pressure-side cleaner, heating, or operating spa jets and water features.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #0e6e68;\"\u003eOrder the Century SQS1202R from Aqua Terra Backyard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt Aqua Terra Backyard, we help pool owners and service professionals choose the correct replacement parts without guessing.
