Airflex pro, 1400w lamb ametek vacuum model number?
« on: April 09, 2020, 06:26:09 pm »
Good evening all, hope you are all well and keeping safe,

Whilst my business is temporary closed, I've decided to service my Airflex pro backup machine. Instead of running two standard 1200w lamb ametek vacuums. I've decided to run one new 1400w and one new 1200w vacuum as proposed by Cleansmart.

Now I understand I need a lamb ametek 1400w 117123

Here come's the confusing part, I've found that this model as 3 different ending digits.
117123-00
117123-13
117123-29

Also listed as various wattage's, either 1400w or 1500w.

Are these actually all just the same? Suitable for my Airflex pro. I seem to believe these are just different build qualities, justifying the price differences.

Thank you,
Chris

117123-00 has no air seal and is meant for dry systems only.
117123-13 1400/1500w metal horn motor for wet systems.
117123-29 exactly the same as the above but fitted with a Hako tube to fit a pipe to.
If you carefully remove a Hako tube you have a 117123-13.
All the same motors but last 2 have air seal for wet applications.

Brilliant, that really helped clear up my days frustration emailing around. Can you just clarify the 117123-13, they have two different wattage's available? Or do people just list them differently online?

Your star, Thank you again.

Hi , this is as good a price as you'l get  ...   like AJB says you'd have to remove the hose connecting tube ... but its really thin metal ...a hack saw goes through it in seconds.

And that is 1400w? The URL says 1400w, but the product description says 1500w?

As an alternative, I've starting using these, found them to be very powerful.
