Aircrewjoe, from the sounds of it......i think the motor may be damaged.....what it sounds like is it may have been dropped or something fell on it and tweaked the motor alignment off a bit.....when there no power it spins freely...when you put power too it the rotor is too close to one side of...

With a center inlet style pump you will gain about a 1/2 to 1 gpm more on the full rated output of the pump.....but that also depends on what kind of restriction the pump is working against. If you have a lot of fittings or filters or small line to push through it probably wont make any...

If you got the motor all wet i would go and get some electrical contact cleaner from places like radio shack and spray it down.....at the very least oil the sleeve bearings with some 3-in-1 oil. Look on the white label for the arrows pointing to the end caps of the motor and it says "OIL"...

On these little pumps its not as critical as their bigger cousins. For the most part on the 809/815 pump as long as you have it flooded you are good.......when pumping at boiling temps the easiest thing you can do is choke the outlet so the liquid coming into the pump slows down and that gives...

Just to be sure which part your talking about.....do you need the motor bracket that has the studs sticking out of it and is about 2" wide. ( part# 0130-0017-0100) Or do you need the rear housing that holds the impeller. Thin black plastic part that looks like a top hat (part# 0802-0043-1000)

You wont have any problems with those dents in the impeller.... :)

As of right now, no. But we are in the final testing phase of a better washer that will be next to indestructible for the 809 ;)

Nothing that has been reported back to me by anyone that's done it. :) if you have a lot of restriction on the inlet side of the pump you could wear out the front of the impeller.....since that would now be the softer material....but you would really need to be chocking the inlet side bad for...

Scott check your PM But the washer can wear out over time...and ordering replacement washer you can get them from any one of our distributors....some people have changed them out to a stainless washer...just need to find a thin one with a 1/4" ID hole :)

Possibly...hard to say without taking the pump apart and inspecting. If you have never taken the pump apart, the only screws to take off are the phillips heads that go through the pump head.....then once that comes off you will see 4 flat head screws under the pump on the backside....you take...

I sounds like the mag drive is de-coupling....meaning the magnets are loosing their alignment and once they slip you need to turn the power off and let it come to a near standstill before the magnets catch again. Couple things may be causing it......the thrust washer is worn out, or the fluid is...

If it has all the same mounting holes and shaft size as the original motor i cant see why not...

230v is more of a pain for non-commercial applications....the only advantage it has is that it uses 1/2 the amp draw of 115v other then that there is no performance gains. And unless you know how to do electrical work at home...the cost would not be worth it in the long run to have an...

VFD use is generally used for 3phase motors. And yes all of our 3 phase motors are rated for VFD use...they can go down to 10:1 I'm not aware of any true VFD's for single phase......if you wanted to run one down you would need something more inline with a system that uses PWM (Pulse Width...

List price for the motor is $115...but we dont sell direct so you would have to call a distributor to get a price....and they "usually" sell for less then list price.

Most times you can spec them at 2x working amps....depending on what the load on the motor is....but for our motors a 5 amp fuse is plenty :)

Sorry for the late reply...i was off all last week. That motor is still available if you want it. But to answer your questions: it spins CW if looking at the shaft side.....and CCW if you are looking at the back of the motor at the fan blades. And the shaft is 1/4"

60' of 1/2" ID tubing has a head loss of about 7' @ 2-3gpm.....assuming you dont have much extra head height to where you are pumping, you should be able to get the 2-3 gpm out of an 809 HS pump. If you have no more then 3' of extra head height on your setup you should still be in the 1-2 gpm...

Yep, as mentioned above. the pumps are made for 24/7/365 operation. The last 809 pump we had on our life test rig was 13yrs old. Only reason we took it off was to start a new test on another model that we are testing a new motor with. Oldest running pump we have right now is a series 5.5 that...

Wont hurt anything at all....these are not DC motors with permanent magnets that will generate power when spun. :) We have a number of customers at water treatment plants that use our pumps for sampling....when not in use some of the city water pressure runs through the pump and spins...
