Baracuda - Aquantis Pump Diffuser 0.5–1.5 HP - 500-6367

Baracuda – Aquantis Pump Diffuser 0.5–1.5 HP

This is the genuine Baracuda replacement diffuser for the Aquantis pump range, covering models from 0.5 HP up to 1.5 HP (parent SKU 77862). The diffuser sits directly behind the impeller and converts the high-velocity water flow into pressure, making it a critical hydraulic component for efficient pump operation. A worn or cracked diffuser leads to reduced flow, loss of prime, and increased energy consumption.

Compatibility

This diffuser is designed specifically for the Baracuda Aquantis 1.50 HP pump (SKU 77862) and is compatible across the 0.5–1.5 HP Aquantis model range. It corresponds to position 13 in the official Fluidra exploded view diagram for this pump, making it straightforward to identify and order the correct part for your service job.

Why Genuine Matters

As a genuine Baracuda part manufactured to Fluidra’s original specifications, this diffuser ensures a precise fit within the pump’s wet end assembly. Aftermarket alternatives may not match the exact flow geometry, leading to turbulence, cavitation, or premature wear. Choosing an OEM component protects your pump’s performance, warranty status, and service life.

Installation

Replacing the diffuser requires disassembly of the pump’s wet end — disconnect the pump from power and plumbing before starting. The diffuser is secured within the pump body and should be inspected alongside the impeller and shaft seal during any wet-end service. Refer to the official Fluidra exploded view (position 13) and always reassemble with the correct torque settings. Professional installation by a qualified pool technician is recommended.
