This cell uses common table salt and electrolysis to continuously generate chlorine, eliminating the need for traditional chlorine dosing while maintaining clear, sanitary water. The unit features built-in digital control for chlorine output adjustment and salinity read-out, making it both functional and user-friendly. Designed with durable titanium\/ruthenium plates and compatible unplug-in unions, this cell is built for long-term in-ground pool use and is fully plumb-and-wired to align with the original IntelliChlor system’s specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"960\" data-end=\"976\"\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"977\" data-end=\"2142\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"977\" data-end=\"1217\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"979\" data-end=\"1217\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"979\" data-end=\"1025\"\u003eExact Replacement for Pentair IC40\/520555:\u003c\/strong\u003e Designed to match the original dimensions, plumbing unions and electrical specifications of the Pentair cell so installation is direct and hassle-free.\u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ms-1 inline-flex max-w-full items-center relative top-[-0.094rem] animate-[show_150ms_ease-in]\" data-testid=\"webpage-citation-pill\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1218\" data-end=\"1431\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1220\" data-end=\"1431\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1220\" data-end=\"1262\"\u003eHigh-Capacity Design for Larger Pools:\u003c\/strong\u003e Engineered for pool capacities around 40,000 gallons, delivering adequate chlorine production to meet heavier sanitation demand.\u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ms-1 inline-flex max-w-full items-center relative top-[-0.094rem] animate-[show_150ms_ease-in]\" data-testid=\"webpage-citation-pill\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1432\" data-end=\"1665\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1434\" data-end=\"1665\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1434\" data-end=\"1482\"\u003eOnboard Digital Control \u0026amp; Salinity Read-Out:\u003c\/strong\u003e The unit features integrated controls that allow you to adjust output and monitor salt levels visually, enhancing ease of use and maintenance.\u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ms-1 inline-flex max-w-full items-center relative top-[-0.094rem] animate-[show_150ms_ease-in]\" data-testid=\"webpage-citation-pill\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1666\" data-end=\"1917\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1668\" data-end=\"1917\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1668\" data-end=\"1714\"\u003eRobust Construction for Pool Environments:\u003c\/strong\u003e Built with titanium\/ruthenium alloy plates and corrosion-resistant housing to withstand harsh salt water conditions, reducing downtime and extending service life.\u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ms-1 inline-flex max-w-full items-center relative top-[-0.094rem] animate-[show_150ms_ease-in]\" data-testid=\"webpage-citation-pill\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1918\" data-end=\"2142\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1920\" data-end=\"2142\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1920\" data-end=\"1952\"\u003ePlug-and-Play Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Uses standard 1.5″ or 2″ plumbing unions and electrical fit-up designed to match the original IntelliChlor cell, simplifying retrofits or replacements.\u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ms-1 inline-flex max-w-full items-center relative top-[-0.094rem] animate-[show_150ms_ease-in]\" data-testid=\"webpage-citation-pill\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eReplacement For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect Replacement for the Pentair 520555 IC40 Salt Cell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"34\" data-end=\"55\"\u003eAdditional Info\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"56\" data-end=\"396\"\u003eNeed help replacing your Pentair IC40 salt cell?
