Aqua-Shield EZ48™, which joins the U.S. MOTORS® brand family of pool motors manufactured by Nidec, is designed to provide superior moisture resistance inside the motor where water and debris can damage windings and cause premature motor failure. Aqua-Shield features additional bearing protection as well. Aqua-Shield motors will continue to deliver the three layers of bearing protection provided on our motors today (double-sealed ball bearings, lip seal and water slinger). In addition, Aqua-Shield features additional bearing protection by including a new internal bearing cover which protects the drive end bearings from internal moisture. Optimized internal air flow minimizes moisture buildup inside the motor.

 

Don’t waste time and profit. The Aqua-Shield EZ48 is one of the easiest and quickest 48 frame motors to install on the market today. 

 

 

Fan Efficiently draws in air via the ventilation holes. Moisture is spun to the outer reaches of the inner shell while air moves over the internal motor assembly for improved dryness.

Baffle Focuses the air pulled in by the fan to move over the internal parts of the motor.

Internal bearing cover Works to keep moisture away from the internal bearing to increase life.
