Abstract

A pump-motor assembly having a base, a horizontal pump, a pump bracket to attach the pump to the base, a motor to energize the pump and a motor mount with a motor table and a motor platform to support and position the motor. The motor platform has a standard hole pattern for fasteners connecting the motor platform to the motor table. The motor table has a base and an adapter plate with multiple aperture sets standardizing the motor platform height and motor fastener pattern that establish the height of the motor shaft relative to the motor platform. The thickness of the base plate can be varied as necessary to determine a required motor shaft height, thereby accommodating motor sizes within a selected large range of motor sizes.
