Product Overview

The Jandy FloPro Pump Lid and Locking Ring Assembly R0480000 is a replacement assembly designed for compatible Jandy FloPro Series pool pumps. It replaces the removable strainer lid and locking ring located above the pump basket chamber.

The clear lid allows technicians and pool owners to inspect water flow and basket condition without opening the pump. The locking ring secures the lid evenly against the pump housing, helping create the airtight seal required for reliable priming and circulation.

This assembly is an ideal replacement when the original lid is cracked, cloudy, warped, or leaking, or when the locking ring is damaged and can no longer secure the lid correctly.

Confirm Before Ordering

• Verify the complete pump model number.
• Confirm the pump belongs to a compatible Jandy FloPro generation.
