Specs:

Type of Feed: Continuous
On/Off Control: Wall Switch
Motor: Single Phase
HP: 1/3
Volts: 120
HZ: 60
RPM: 1725
Amp. (Avg. Load): 6.7

Thanks!

It will be fine.
Badger 1: 6.7 Amps 1/3HP
Badger 5: 6.9 Amps 1/2HP
Badger 5XP: 8.1 Amps 3/4HP

I went with the 5XP when I had to replace mine. No issues (the unit is bigger though) and I love extra power in anything.
