Regal Rexnord hsq260 Pool Spa Pump Motor 2.6 Hp 48Y

Product Description

The REGAL REXNORD hsq260 is a 2.6 HP single-speed pool and spa pump motor built on a 48Y frame with a square flange mount. Running at 3450 RPM on 230 volts single-phase power, it draws 11.4 amps at full load and operates on a capacitor start/run design. The motor carries a Class B insulation rating, an open drip-proof enclosure, and automatic thermal protection with auto-reset. At 33 pounds and 12.03 inches in overall length, it is sized for residential pool and spa pump applications. The 303 stainless steel threaded shaft and sealed ball bearings contribute to corrosion resistance in wet-environment service. Licensed pool and pump technicians are the primary installers.

This motor is intended for residential pool and spa pump systems requiring a 48Y frame, square flange, single-speed, 230-volt motor. The counterclockwise rotation at the pulley end (CCWPE) is standard for most pool pump configurations. It is rated for continuous duty with a 1.00 service factor and is approved for use in ambient temperatures up to 50 degrees Celsius, making it suitable for outdoor pump installations in warm climates. UL 1081 approval and CSA certification confirm it meets recognized safety standards for pool and spa equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed pool technician or qualified electrician familiar with NEC requirements for pool and spa equipment wiring. Disconnect and lock out all power to the pump circuit before removing the existing motor. Confirm shaft rotation direction and flange type match the existing pump before mounting. Do not operate the pump dry, as this can damage the mechanical seal and motor bearings.
