SEBO Motor Sound Insulation...
$8.00
Product details
A quiet upright is mostly a matter of what surrounds the motor rather than the motor itself. 7098 is the shaped sound insulation SEBO packs around the suction motor in the FELIX Premium, the FELIX 2 Premium and the DART, and it is specified for use with the 7041ER motor.
The motor sits in the lower body behind its own seal, drawing through the pre-motor filter and exhausting out the back of the machine. The insulation is what stops that assembly from turning the body shell into a sounding board. It is compressed in place from new, so by the time a motor is being changed the insulation has usually taken a permanent set, and any that has been soaked in bearing oil or torn on the way out will not damp anything once refitted. Machines that come back from a motor job noticeably louder than they went in are very often machines that got their old insulation back.
- Part number: 7098
- Listed for: the SEBO DART, the FELIX Premium and the FELIX 2 Premium
- Specified with: the 7041ER suction motor, which SEBO's FELIX drawing lists at item 8 as a 120V, 1000W unit
- Role: damps running noise from the motor inside the body shell
- Fit it: whenever the motor comes out and the body is open anyway
The parts that come out with it are the ones worth ordering together. SEBO's drawings put the motor seal 1047 immediately alongside the motor, item 7 on the FELIX sheet and item 8 on the DART sheet; the carbon brush set for that motor is 05140S; and the pre-motor filter guarding it is 7012AM. All are listed for the same three uprights, and all cost a fraction of a second teardown.
