Swimables SW-75-736 IntelliChlor-Style Flow Switch
Reliable Water Flow Protection for IntelliChlor® Salt Systems
The Swimables IntelliChlor® Style Flow Switch (SW-75-736) is a critical safety and performance component designed to monitor water movement in Pentair® IntelliChlor® style salt chlorine generator systems. This flow switch ensures chlorine production only occurs when proper water flow is present, protecting both the salt cell and pool equipment.
Without a functioning flow switch, salt systems may fail to generate chlorine, display flow errors, or risk damage by operating without adequate circulation. This replacement restores proper system communication and safe chlorine production.
This product is engineered strictly for swimming pool and spa equipment use.
What a Salt System Flow Switch Does
A flow switch confirms that sufficient water is moving through the salt cell before allowing chlorine generation. When water flow drops below safe levels, the switch signals the control system to shut down chlorine production.
This protects against:
-
Chlorine gas buildup
-
Salt cell damage
-
Heater and plumbing stress
-
Unsafe operating conditions
The SW-75-736 delivers accurate flow detection to keep IntelliChlor® style systems operating safely.
IntelliChlor® Style Compatibility
The Swimables SW-75-736 is built in an IntelliChlor® style configuration, commonly used in Pentair® IntelliChlor® salt chlorine generator systems.
It is frequently replaced during salt system diagnostics and pairs naturally with components found in the Salt Chlorine Generator Collection and Pool Automation & Control Parts Collection.
Always verify compatibility with your specific system before installation.
Common Symptoms of a Failed Flow Switch
Flow switches are exposed to constant water movement and electrical cycling. Common signs of failure include:
-
“No Flow” or “Low Flow” error messages
-
Salt system not producing chlorine
-
Intermittent chlorine output
-
System shutdowns despite proper pump operation
-
Visual damage or corrosion on the switch housing
Replacing the flow switch restores proper chlorine generation logic.
Essential for Salt Cell and System Protection
Salt chlorine generators rely on accurate flow confirmation to operate safely. The SW-75-736 helps:
-
Prevent chlorine generation without circulation
-
Protect expensive salt cells
-
Maintain consistent sanitation
-
Extend equipment lifespan
This makes the flow switch one of the most important safety devices in a saltwater pool system.
