Central vacuum motor 7500

Function

A central vacuum motor is an essential component in a centralised cleaning system. It is responsible for creating the suction force that draws dust and debris through the pipe network to the central unit.

Wear and replacement

Here is some information about how it works and signs that it may be time to replace it:

1. Creating suction: The motor creates a vacuum in the system, which allows air, and with it dirt, to be sucked into the pipe network.

2. Debris removal: The debris is then transported to the central unit, where it can be collected in a bag or container.

When to consider replacing the motor:

1. Loss of suction: If you notice a significant loss of suction power, this could indicate a problem with the motor. This may be due to normal wear and tear over time.

2. Unusual noises: Loud noises, excessive vibrations or other unusual sounds coming from the motor may indicate problems. This may be the result of worn or defective parts.

3. Excessive heating: If the motor becomes abnormally hot, this could be a sign of overheating due to internal operating problems.

4. Strange odours: Burning or overheating smells can also indicate problems with the motor.

5. Age: Like any mechanical component, central vacuum motors have a limited lifespan. If your system is old and you are starting to experience recurring problems, it may be time to replace the motor.

It is important to note that some problems can be repaired rather than completely replacing the motor. In any case, if you are experiencing problems with your central vacuum system, it is recommended that you call a professional for an accurate diagnosis and advice on the best solution.
