AstralPool - 90° Bend for Viron QL420 & QL540 Filter Cartridge - 4404130043

AstralPool – 90° Bend for Viron QL420 & QL540 Filter Cartridge

This is the genuine AstralPool 90° bend fitting (position 8 in the official Fluidra exploded view) designed specifically for the Viron QL420 and QL540 cartridge filter units. It forms a critical part of the filter’s internal or external plumbing assembly, directing water flow at a right angle to ensure correct hydraulic routing through the system. Replacing a damaged or leaking bend with a genuine OEM part restores proper water flow and maintains the integrity of the filter circuit.

Compatibility

This 90° bend is engineered exclusively for the AstralPool Viron QL420 and QL540 cartridge filter (parent SKU 76340). It corresponds to position 8 in the official Fluidra exploded view diagram for that unit. Always cross-reference the exploded view before ordering to confirm this is the correct part for your filter model.

Why Genuine Matters

The Viron QL filter operates under high pressure, and every fitting in its plumbing circuit must meet OEM tolerances to prevent leaks or pressure loss. A genuine AstralPool replacement bend ensures a precise dimensional fit, compatibility with the filter’s non-corrosive injection-moulded construction, and continued compliance with the filter’s design specifications — protecting both performance and any remaining warranty coverage.

Installation

Installation should be carried out by a qualified pool technician, as the Viron QL filter operates under high pressure and must be fully isolated before any components are replaced. Consult the official Fluidra exploded view diagram (parent SKU 76340) to confirm positioning before disassembly. Ensure all connections are secure and leak-free before returning the system to service.
