Zodiac – D760 collector elbow – R0598000

The Zodiac R0598000 is a genuine replacement collector elbow designed specifically for use with Zodiac’s Boreal sand filter range fitted with a 760 mm diameter tank. The collector elbow is a critical internal component that connects the lateral arm assembly to the central standpipe within the filter body, ensuring that filtered water is properly directed through the system. As a factory-original spare part, it guarantees a precise fit and reliable long-term performance within the filter internals.

The collector elbow channels water flow between the lateral distribution system and the main standpipe, playing an essential role in maintaining correct hydraulic balance inside the filter. If the elbow becomes cracked, warped, or develops a poor seal, water can bypass the filter media, significantly reducing filtration efficiency. Replacing a worn or damaged elbow with this genuine Zodiac part restores the filter to its original operating specification, preserving filtration quality and protecting the rest of the pool circulation system from carrying unfiltered water.

Technical characteristics and compatibility

This collector elbow is engineered to fit the Boreal sand filter models built around the 760 mm diameter vessel. Zodiac’s Boreal range is designed for residential and semi-commercial pool installations and uses a conventional sand or glass filtration media. The internal components, including this elbow, are manufactured from durable, chemically resistant polymer materials suited to continuous contact with pool water and backwash flows. The part integrates directly with the lateral assembly and standpipe without the need for tools or adhesives, relying on a precision-moulded push or friction fit typical of Zodiac filter internals.

When servicing the filter, it is recommended to inspect the collector elbow alongside the laterals and central standpipe, as these components work together as a unit. This part is identified in the official Zodiac Boreal spare parts documentation under SKU R0598000 and is listed in Fluidra’s official pool care equipment catalogues.

Suitability and application

This spare part is intended for owners and pool technicians maintaining a Zodiac Boreal sand filter with a 760 mm tank diameter. It is suitable for residential pools of a size appropriate to the Boreal D760 filter model. If your filter’s collector elbow shows signs of cracking, warping, poor fit, or water bypass, this genuine replacement part restores correct function. It is not compatible with smaller or larger Boreal variants such as the D400 or D520 models, nor with other filter brands. Always verify your filter model and tank diameter before ordering to ensure compatibility.
