Pentair 522480 Pump Tubes (2-Pack) – OEM Size C Replacement Tubing
Part # 522480 — a set of two replacement pump tubes designed for tank-mounted pump systems used in chemical controllers and feeder setups. These tubes are OEM-specified “Size C” replacements for original equipment, ideal for repairs or rebuilds without needing a full pump replacement.
Key Features
- Includes two pump tubes — ideal for replacing both suction and discharge or as spare tubing.
- Manufactured to OEM specifications for proper fit and reliable performance in Pentair chemical-feed & controller pump systems.
- Constructed from durable, chemical-resistant materials suited to handle pool and spa chemical solutions.
- Ensures correct flow and pressure performance when replacing worn or damaged tubes.
- Affordable maintenance option compared to replacing the entire pump assembly — good for servicing or refurbishing system feed pumps.
Typical Applications
Used when the existing pump tubing on a tank-mounted pump (common in chemical-feed controllers or feeder systems) becomes cracked, brittle, leaking, or otherwise fails. Suitable for maintenance or repair on systems where the pump housing and motor remain in good condition.
Installation & Compatibility Notes
Shut off the pump and relieve any pressure before servicing. Remove the old tubing from the pump head and fittings. Install the new tubes — ensuring proper seating on suction and discharge ports and secure clamps or fittings if required. Prime the pump and verify proper flow and leak-free performance before returning the system to service.
Why Choose This Replacement Tube Set?
The 522480 pump tube set provides a cost-effective, OEM-quality solution to restore pump performance when tubing fails. It helps maintain trusted flow rates and chemical dosing reliability without replacing the entire pump unit, extending the life of existing equipment.
Maintenance Tips
- Inspect tubing annually or whenever chemical feed seems weak — look for cracks, discoloration, or leaks.
- Replace tubing if water or chemical leaks occur, or if tubing becomes hardened or brittle.
- Check and tighten hose clamps or fittings after first startup, and re-check after the first week of operation.
- Keep spare tubing on hand — tubes are prone to chemical or UV degradation and are inexpensive to replace compared to pump failure downtime.
