Supco SM550 Motor
The Supco SM550 Vent Hood Motor is a high-performance, aftermarket solution engineered to professional standards for the replacement of Nutone range hood ventilator motors and various vintage exhaust systems. This shaded-pole, 120VAC motor transitions seamlessly into C-frame mounting configurations, operating at a fixed 3000 RPM. Designed for durability in kitchen ventilation environments, it serves as the direct replacement for S65878000, C65878, and VFM100. The assembly is spec-heavy to ensure field compatibility, featuring a 7/32-inch flat shaft and a counterclockwise (CCW) rotation as viewed from the shaft end. This kit is a complete drop-in replacement, including the FB460 fan blade and a pre-installed 9-inch lead with a standard plug. For contractors and technicians, this unit eliminates the overhead of sourcing individual components by providing a certified, UL-listed, and CSA-approved assembly that maintains airflow efficiency and reduces operational noise in residential ventilation housings.
Key Benefits for Technicians:
- OEM-Spec Compatibility: Engineering-grade match for Nutone S65878000, 65100, and Dayton 4m209a, ensuring no-hassle retrofitting.
- Integrated Fan Assembly: Includes the FB460 impeller (4-9/16" diameter) to ensure optimal static pressure and airflow without extra assembly time.
- Universal C-Frame Design: Standardized 1/2-inch stack size and mounting studs allow for rapid installation in tight ventilation enclosures.
- Safe Electrical Integration: Features 9-inch leads with a pre-molded 120VAC plug, meeting UL and CSA certification standards for safety compliance.
- Industrial Performance: Delivers a consistent 3000 RPM single-speed output to handle 50 CFM requirements in standard kitchen and bathroom vents.
Common Questions:
Is the SM550 motor compatible with my older Nutone model?
The SM550 is specifically designed as an exact replacement for the Nutone 65878000/C65878 series. If your current unit utilizes a C-frame motor with a .218" shaft hole ID and CCW rotation, this will typically be a direct fit.
In which direction does the motor rotate?
This motor features a Counterclockwise (CCW) rotation when viewed from the shaft end. It is critical to verify your existing airflow orientation before installation to ensure the FB460 fan blade operates at peak efficiency.
Can I use this for a bathroom exhaust fan?
While optimized for range hoods, many technicians use the SM550 for bathroom ventilation systems that match the 120V C-frame specifications and 50 CFM air volume requirements.
