Description
The Xylem-Bell & Gossett SM2111 is a replacement motor for centrifugal pumps in HVAC systems. It is a single-stage, 1.5 horsepower motor that runs at 1725 revolutions per minute (RPM). It is possible that the “56J” in the product number, which is a common identification for electric motors, relates to the motor’s frame size. The “208-230/460V” denotes that the motor can be wired to operate at voltages between 208 and 230 volts or 460 volts, allowing for a choice of electrical configurations.Liquid is drawn into centrifugal pumps by a suction force produced by the impeller’s rotation. Following the impeller’s acceleration, the liquid is released at a greater pressure. Water or glycol are frequently circulated through boilers and chillers in HVAC systems using centrifugal pumps.
