Product details
Part 201VF is the Lamb Ametek 117549-12, the dash-12 build of Ametek's 117549 central vacuum motor. MD's published note on that suffix is that the dash-12 fan blades are made slightly differently for better performance, and that the motor itself may be stamped only 7549.
MD rates it as a two-stage motor with a 7.2 inch bottom diameter on 110-120 volt power at 50-60 Hz, giving 125.4 inches of water lift, 111.4 CFM, 483 air watts and 13.5 amps, standing 7-3/4 inches tall with a bolt height of 1-3/4 inches. Ametek classes the same motor as a 7.2 inch bypass tangential unit on its Premier platform at 1,625 watts and names 833450-57 as the replacement brush kit.

A central vacuum motor is a sealed assembly that is not rebuilt, so a failure means a full swap. Suction falling away while the rest of the system is intact, an electrical smell, heavy blue sparking at the top vents or a unit that shuts itself off and restarts later are the usual signs. MD lists this part as replacing the 117549-12 alone, so confirm the stamped number and the bolt height on your own motor first.
