Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the specifications of the FAC190-5250 vacuum motor?
A: The FAC190-5250 is a 24VDC, 3-stage vacuum motor rated at 0.75 HP (3/4 horsepower) for continuous duty operation. It is designed for Factory Cat and Tomcat Magnum series floor scrubbers and supersedes OEM part 190-5250. Equivalent to FC190-5250.
Q: Does the FAC190-5250 motor work with my Factory Cat or Tomcat equipment?
A: The FAC190-5250 fits Factory Cat and Tomcat Magnum series floor scrubbers. Verify that your equipment uses 24VDC power and accepts a 3-stage motor configuration. Cross-reference your current motor part number (190-5250 or FC190-5250) with your equipment documentation to confirm compatibility before purchasing.
Q: What does 3-stage mean in the FAC190-5250 motor design?
A: A 3-stage motor has three impeller stages that progressively increase vacuum pressure as solution moves through the motor housing. This design provides stronger suction for efficient recovery and wastewater removal in floor scrubber applications. Three stages deliver higher lift and better performance compared to single or dual-stage motors of equivalent horsepower.
Q: What are symptoms of a failing FAC190-5250 motor?
A: Failing motor symptoms include reduced suction power, the solution not draining from the tank, unusual grinding or whistling noise during operation, visible carbon buildup inside the motor shroud, burning smell during use, or the motor not starting despite proper 24VDC power. Any of these require motor replacement.
Q: Does the FAC190-5250 require regular maintenance?
A: The FAC190-5250 motor benefits from routine inspection of air filters and motor vents to prevent blockage. Keep solution levels in recovery tanks appropriate to avoid liquid ingestion into the motor. Most vacuum motors operate 300-500 hours per year on average commercial equipment. Monitor performance and replace if suction deteriorates significantly.
