Zodiac – Top front cover grey with cyan details – R0808400

The Zodiac R0808400 is an official replacement top front cover designed for the Zodiac Vortex OV3480 automatic suction pool cleaner. This external body component forms the upper front section of the cleaner’s housing, presented in a grey finish with distinctive cyan (blue) accent details that match the original factory appearance of the OV3480 model. Over time, exposure to pool chemicals, UV radiation, and general wear can cause the original cover to discolour, crack, or become damaged. This genuine Zodiac spare part allows owners to restore their cleaner to its original condition without needing to replace the entire unit.

The cover is manufactured to Zodiac’s original specifications, ensuring a precise fit and secure attachment to the cleaner body. It is constructed from durable pool-grade plastic, resistant to the harsh chemical and UV environment of a swimming pool. As a direct OEM replacement, no modifications are required during installation — the part clips or fastens into place following the same assembly logic as the original component.

Compatibility and technical details

This top front cover is specifically designed and confirmed compatible with the Zodiac Vortex OV3480 suction-side automatic pool cleaner. The OV3480 is a popular suction cleaner used in residential in-ground pools, and this cover forms part of its outer protective shell. The grey and cyan colour scheme is characteristic of the OV3480 model line, meaning this part is model-specific and is not interchangeable with covers from other Zodiac cleaner series unless explicitly confirmed by Zodiac documentation. Always verify your cleaner’s exact model reference before ordering to ensure fitment.

The part reference R0808400 is the official Zodiac OEM part number, which can be cross-referenced in Zodiac’s spare parts catalogues and exploded-view diagrams for the Vortex OV3480 series. Using the correct OEM reference ensures you receive the exact replacement component engineered for your cleaner.

Suitability and buying context

This replacement cover is intended for owners of the Zodiac Vortex OV3480 automatic pool cleaner who need to replace a worn, faded, cracked, or cosmetically damaged top front cover. It is suitable for residential swimming pools where the OV3480 cleaner is in active use. Replacing worn external body parts not only improves the appearance of the cleaner but can also protect internal mechanisms from exposure. This is a purely cosmetic and protective structural component — it does not affect the suction, drive, or filtration performance of the cleaner directly, but maintaining intact body covers helps preserve the overall integrity and longevity of the unit.
