Hello everybody. I was wondering about Frigidaire dishwasher pump motors. Fore example, on the fbd2400kw, how many rpm's does the circulation pump spin at? How many gallons does it circulate? |

Here's a wiring diagram of the Frigidaire fbd2400 series. I could be wrong, but some Frigidaire recirculation pumps spin at 3100 to 3200 rpm's while others spin at 3600 rpm's. CLICK HERE TO GO TO GELaundry4ever's LINK |

I mean, usually the sticker on the side of the motor will show amperage and RPM rating, but I doubt you'll find that info in the diagrams or the spec sheets. I would look up the model number of the machine you're curious about, and then use that on a site like RepairClinic or Appliance Parts Pros to find a breakdown of the parts. Usually they'll have photos of the parts, so you may be able to use to picture to read the label. Sometimes you can just google the model number and then the word "motor" and you can usually find a picture that is sourced from such sites.

On a related note, in my own experience and opinion, the RPM rating of a motor or pump usually has no correlation at all to its noise level or power. It all depends on how the motor is designed and how the pump impeller and intake/outlets are engineered. For example, we just replaced our bathroom vents in our guest and master baths. The originals were cheap builders grade vents with paddle style fans and shaded pole motors. They spun like crazy and made a lot of white noise, but moved barely any air at all. To replace them, we put in Panasonic units that are much larger, with large squirrel cage blower wheels, and while they don't spin quite as fast and they're nearly silent, the air coming from the outlet in the roof is about the same as the air volume a dryer would produce. It's all in the design of the motor and the application it works with.
