Product details
This Ametek Lamb 7.2 inch motor is a single-stage bypass motor with tangential discharge, rated for 120V. In a bypass design, the motor's cooling air is drawn through a separate path from the working airflow that picks up dirt and debris, which keeps the windings away from dust and moisture and lets the motor run in wet or continuous-duty service where a thru-flow motor would not hold up.
Ametek publishes 119962-12 as a 7.2 inch frame, single fan stage, 120 volt AC motor with tangential output at the 1600 watt power level, of its 7.2-Enhanced motor type and high-performance flow class, with a self-cleaning fan system and an interrupter brush, served by replacement brush kit 833503-52. Ametek publishes the 7.2 inch bypass tangential family this motor belongs to as reaching sealed vacuums up to 135 inches of water and flow rates up to 125 CFM. Those are family ceilings rather than a measured rating for this individual build, so treat them as the top of the range and not as a guaranteed figure. No list of the specific machines originally fitted with it is published, so match your existing motor's diameter, voltage, and bypass or thru-flow type before ordering.
Watch for the usual signs that a bypass motor needs replacement: sealed suction and airflow that have dropped noticeably even with clean filters, a grinding or whining sound from worn bearings, or a burning smell that points to failing brushes or windings. Because this motor sits at the 1600 watt power level, confirm your circuit and wiring are rated to carry that load before installing it as a replacement for a lower-wattage original.
