The pump cover is not properly grounded posing an electrical shock hazard.
Nidec Motor Corporation is recalling variable speed pool pump motors that may not be properly grounded, creating an electrical shock hazard. This recall affects specific model numbers sold in the U.S. and requires immediate stop use to prevent injury.
The pump cover is not properly grounded, which means electrical current could flow through a person touching the pump during operation. This poses a risk of electric shock, potentially causing serious injury or death if the pump is used without proper grounding.
Pool owners who purchased the recalled Ecotech EZ variable speed pool pump motors with model numbers M63PWBLE-121, M63PWBLM-128, M63PWBLR-131, or M63PWBLS-132 are most at risk. These pumps were sold between 2018 and 2020.
Check the pump's rating plate for model numbers M63PWBLE-121, M63PWBLM-128, M63PWBLR-131, or M63PWBLS-132. These motors have a 6.5-inch black steel frame with a square or C-flange mounting and are painted black.
