Polaris PB4-60 Booster Pump Motor, 0.75 HP, 230/115 V, 60 Hz , Single Phase | PB460
The Polaris PB4-60 is the essential companion for pressure-side automatic pool cleaners, providing the dedicated high-pressure water flow required for models like the Polaris 280, 380, and 3900 Sport. Engineered specifically to work in tandem with your primary filtration pump, this booster pump ensures your cleaner has the "muscle" to vacuum debris and navigate your pool's floor and walls with maximum efficiency. The PB460 model is recognized across the industry for its rugged durability and quiet operation, making it the most reliable choice for a clean, debris-free pool.
Features
Dedicated High-Pressure Output: This pump is specifically tuned to provide the exact water pressure (PSI) and flow required to power the venturi jets of pressure-side cleaners, ensuring consistent cleaning performance without straining your main filter pump.
Heavy-Duty 3/4 HP Motor: Equipped with a high-performance 0.75 HP motor that is built to withstand the frequent on/off cycles and high-pressure demands of automatic pool cleaning systems.
Durable Reinforced Construction: The pump housing and internal components are constructed from corrosion-resistant, high-strength materials designed to thrive in harsh backyard environments and chemically treated pool water.
Quiet Operation Design: Features a precision-balanced motor and a vibration-dampening base to minimize noise levels on your pool pad, keeping your backyard a quiet and peaceful environment.
Dual-Voltage Versatility: Designed to run on either 230V or 115V power. The motor features an easily accessible terminal board, allowing for straightforward wiring to match your existing pool equipment setup.
Seal-Protective Design: Utilizes high-quality mechanical seals and gaskets to prevent leaks and protect the motor bearings from water damage, extending the overall service life of the unit.
Easy Installation Kit Compatibility: Features standard 3/4" inlet and outlet ports, making it a direct "drop-in" replacement for older booster pump models and compatible with most existing booster pump hose kits.

Notes
Do Not Run Dry: A booster pump must only be operated when the main pool filtration pump is running. Running a booster pump without water flow from the main pump will cause the internal seals to overheat and fail almost instantly. We highly recommend using a dedicated timer or an automation system to interlock the two pumps.
