Davey EcoSalt Chlorinator (DES13CE / DES20CE / DES26CE) exploded view & spare parts

Davey EcoSalt Chlorinator (DES13CE / DES20CE / DES26CE) exploded view & spare parts

This page covers the complete exploded-view diagram and bill of materials for the Davey EcoSalt salt chlorinator range, comprising factory references DES13CE, DES20CE, and DES26CE. The three models share the same housing architecture and the majority of their mechanical parts; they differ principally in their rated chlorine output — 13 g/h, 20 g/h, and 26 g/h respectively — which is reflected in model-specific transformers, PCBs, and electrolytic cells. Whether you are a pool owner carrying out routine maintenance or a technician replacing a failed component, the numbered diagram and the parts list below will let you identify the correct SKU in minutes. All positions referenced on this page correspond directly to the numbered call-outs shown in the diagram.

How to use the numbered diagram to find your part

Every numbered call-out in the diagram corresponds to exactly one row (or one group of rows) in the parts list below the image. The quickest approach is to locate the area of the unit that concerns you — for example, the control housing, the cell assembly, or the plumbing connections — then read off the position number printed against the relevant component in the diagram. Use that position number to find the matching row or rows in the parts list, note the SKU, and add the correct item to your basket. Be aware that some position numbers appear more than once in the table: position 5 (Transformer) and position 6 (PCB), for instance, each have three separate SKUs — one per model variant (DES13CE, DES20CE, DES26CE) — so you must confirm your model designation before ordering. The same applies to position 22 (Cell) and position 21 (Barrel Union Assembly), which carries two entries for different pipe sizes. Where a position maps to multiple rows, the descriptions in the table will guide you to the correct variant; if in any doubt, cross-reference the model reference printed on your unit’s label. Never assume that a part listed under one output model will be interchangeable with the equivalent part from a different output model, particularly for electrically rated components such as the transformer and PCB.

Main replaceable assemblies on the Davey EcoSalt Chlorinator (DES13CE / DES20CE / DES26CE)

The EcoSalt control housing contains the primary electrical and control components. At its core sits the PCB (position 6) and Transformer (position 5), both of which are rated specifically to each model’s output capacity, making it essential to match the replacement to your exact model reference. The Filter Board (position 7, SKU 14756PG) and Switch (position 8, SKU M2004) are shared across all three models and support the power control circuitry. Overcurrent protection is provided by the 3 Amp Fuse at position 18 (SKU M2901), retained in the Fuse Holder at position 19 (SKU M2953) — both are common across the range and straightforward to replace. The enclosure itself consists of the Top Baffle (position 2, SKU 14041), Base (position 4, SKU 14042-3), and Front Cover (position 9, SKU 14044-2), with the Hanging Bracket (position 3, SKU 14343) allowing the unit to be wall-mounted. User interaction is handled by the Chlorine Control Knob (position 13, SKU M1521) and the Door assembly, which comprises the Door (position 17, SKU 14401), Sliding Door Linkage (position 15, SKU 14051), Swinging Door Linkage (position 16, SKU 14052), and the Spring (position 14, SKU 14060) that keeps the mechanism under tension. On the plumbing side, cell references DESILC13REP, DESILC20REP, and DESILC26REP correspond to the DES13CE, DES20CE, and DES26CE models respectively — these are listed at position 22 and represent the most frequently replaced component over the unit’s service life. The in-line electrolytic cell connects to the pipework via the Barrel Union Assembly at position 21, while the Flow Switch at position 20 (SKU 15712SP) protects the cell by confirming adequate water movement before chlorine production begins. The Cell Cord (position 11, SKU 15710) and Power Cord (position 10, SKU M2699) complete the electrical connections between the housing and the cell.

Choosing between variants and pack sizes

Several positions in this diagram carry more than one SKU, and selecting the wrong variant is the most common ordering mistake. For the Transformer (position 5), PCB (position 6), and Cell (position 22), the correct part is determined entirely by your model: DES13CE, DES20CE, or DES26CE — check the label on your unit before ordering. For the Barrel Union Assembly at position 21, the choice is between the 50 mm assembly (SKU 48775-1SP) and the 63 mm assembly (SKU 48722B-1SP); the EcoSalt is supplied with Euro pipe adapters accommodating 50 mm (1.5-inch) and 63 mm (2-inch) pipe diameters, so measure your existing pipework or check your installation documentation to confirm which size is fitted. Using a barrel union of the wrong diameter will result in a poor seal and potential leakage at the cell connection. For consumable items such as the 3 Amp Fuse (position 18), no variant selection is required — a single SKU (M2901) covers all three models.
