As Simple As 1-2-3
Restore your VACUFLO 260 central vacuum's suction and performance with the upgraded Ametek Lamb 122159-07 replacement motor. Designed for compatible VACUFLO True Cyclonic systems, this genuine Ametek Lamb motor provides strong airflow and vacuum power while offering an updated design over the original motor used in older VACUFLO 260 systems.
The VACUFLO 260 is a True Cyclonic central vacuum system designed to operate without conventional disposable bags or filters. The system uses cyclonic separation to remove dirt and debris from the incoming airflow. VACUFLO's official product documentation identifies the 260 as one of its True Cyclonic power units.
The 122159-07 is a 120-volt, 2-stage, 5.7-inch tangential bypass motor. Published specifications list approximately 116 CFM, 112 inches of waterlift, and 443 Air Watts.
Upgraded Replacement for VACUFLO 260
The 122159-07 is sold as an upgraded replacement motor for the VACUFLO 260, as well as the VACUFLO 460 and 760. The 760 uses two motors. The updated -07 version features redesigned fan blades intended to make it less likely for dirt to become caught within the fan.
Because the upgraded motor has a higher electrical load, replacement installations may require the 17-amp circuit breaker/protector supplied for the upgrade. Do not retain the original 15-amp breaker when the upgrade requires 17-amp protection.
Strong Central Vacuum Performance
With approximately 443 Air Watts, 116 CFM of airflow, and 112 inches of waterlift, the 122159-07 provides the performance needed to restore a compatible VACUFLO 260 system. The 5.7-inch, 2-stage motor uses a tangential bypass discharge that directs exhaust air away from the motor's electrical components.
Replacing a worn motor can be an economical alternative to replacing the complete power unit when the existing VACUFLO tank, wiring, relay or circuit board, and other components are still in good condition.
