Benefits
The PSD PSDBYPASS30 bypass cell helps keep your pool system running when your salt cell is removed for service or replacement. Instead of leaving plumbing open or modifying your equipment pad, this dummy cell installs in place of the compatible iChlor salt cell to maintain water circulation.
It is especially useful during colder months, off-season shutdowns, salt cell cleaning, or while waiting for a replacement salt cell. For pool professionals, it provides a convenient service part to keep on hand for Pentair iChlor systems.

It didn’t fit. Well it sort of does, I have to pry the existing pvc apart and then it will finally screw down but the pipe is now askew and won’t seal. I couldn’t get it to stop spewing water.
