Xylem M05422 Submersible Pump Motor 0.5 Hp 230V 2-wire

Product Description

The XYLEM M05422 is a 2-wire, single-phase submersible pump motor rated at 0.5 HP and 230 volts, designed for use in 4-inch submersible well pump applications. Running at 3500 RPM, this motor is built with a 304 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in submerged environments. It features built-in lightning and surge protection and a 700-pound thrust bearing rating, which exceeds many competitive offerings at 300 and 650-pound ratings. The 2-wire configuration includes on-winding thermal overload protection, eliminating the need for an external control box. Licensed plumbers and well pump installers are the primary trades that service and replace this motor.

This motor is suited for residential and light commercial well water systems where a 4-inch submersible pump is installed. The 2-wire design simplifies wiring by integrating the starting components within the motor itself, making it a practical replacement in tight well casings. It is built to CentriPro application standards and meets UL, CSA, and ANSI/NSF 61 certifications, making it appropriate for potable water systems.

Key Features

• 2-wire design with integrated starting components — no external control box required
• Built-in lightning and surge protection for electrical safety in field installations
• 700-pound thrust bearing rating for extended motor life under load
• On-winding thermal overload protection guards against overheating
• 304 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in submerged service
• Meets UL, CSA, and ANSI/NSF 61 standards for potable water applications

Compatibility

Designed for use with CentriPro 4-inch submersible pumps. Verify motor HP, voltage, phase, and physical dimensions against the existing installation before replacement.

Installation Notes

Installation and replacement should be performed by a licensed plumber or well pump contractor familiar with local well codes and NEC electrical requirements. Disconnect and lock out all power to the well circuit before pulling or lowering the pump assembly. The 2-wire motor does not require a separate control box, but the supply wiring gauge and circuit protection must be sized appropriately for the motor amperage draw. Ensure the drop cable and splice connections are rated for submersible service before reinstalling.
