It replaces the motor portion of a compatible Hayward variable speed pump so the pump can run at multiple speeds for filtration, heating, and cleaner cycles. This component mounts to the pump wet end on the equipment pad.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy This Part Matters\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e When a variable speed motor fails, the pump can stop circulating entirely or run erratically, which impacts filtration, heating performance, and chlorination flow. Motor issues can also trigger drive faults and repeated shutoffs that leave pools going cloudy fast. Replacing the correct motor restores reliable circulation and the ability to run the right speeds for the system. This is a common repair when the wet end is still good but the motor has failed from age, water exposure, or electrical stress.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features and Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eManufacturer part number: SPX3400Z1ECM\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eVariable speed pump motor\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMotor rating listed: 2.7 HP\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFrame style listed: square flange\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eService replacement motor for compatible Hayward variable speed pump applications\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation and Fitment Guidance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Disconnect power at the breaker and verify wiring is de-energized before service. Ensure the motor and seal surfaces are assembled correctly so the pump does not leak at startup. Confirm by manufacturer part number before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Hayward Brand\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Hayward offers a complete ecosystem of pool equipment including pumps, filters, heaters, automation, cleaners, chlorination systems, and service parts.

It is often identified after troubleshooting confirms power is present and the wet end spins freely but the motor will not run.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hayward","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52050178998546,"sku":"SPX3400Z1ECM","price":930.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0733\/2279\/1186\/files\/HPPSPX3400Z1ECM_0.jpg?v=1771892447","url":"https:\/\/www.aquaterrabackyard.com\/products\/hayward-spx3400z1ecm-variable-speed-pump-motor-2-7-hp-square-flange","provider":"Aqua Terra Backyard","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
