The central seal of the Emaux TOP SS/VF six-way valve is a sealing ring located in the central part of the valve’s rotary mechanism. Its function is to seal the rotation axis of the diverter plate and prevent water leakage through the centre of the valve during pressurised operation.
The original seal is compatible with both valve variants – TOP SS and TOP VF – and its dimensions match the groove in the valve body exactly. The material resists chlorinated water, pool chemicals and repeated mechanical stress.
Leakage through the centre of the valve is usually the first sign of seal wear. The timely and inexpensive replacement of this small part prevents greater damage and preserves the full functionality of the entire filtration system.
