The E140 Check

Astralpool's own E-Series parts lists, from the 2014 spare parts sheet through the 2018-19 catalogue to the current manual, give the E140 its own impeller, 40060L, and list 40060M for the E170. If you have an E140, send us photos of the pump label and your old impeller before ordering and we will confirm the right part.

The E-Series Model Rule (rev. ESR-1.0)

Astralpool's parts lists give each E-Series model its own impeller, so the impeller has to match the model on the pump label. Work through these steps before ordering:

1. Read the model on the pump label: E140, E170, E230 or E290. Astralpool's current parts list shows later models with a C suffix, for example E230C.
2. Match the model to the table below.
3. Order the impeller listed for your model. Do not fit an impeller from another model to change the flow.
4. If the label is unreadable, send us photos of the pump label and the old impeller. We would rather identify it for you than have it come back.

Which E-Series Impeller Do I Need?

Sources: Astralpool E-Series spare parts sheet (2014), 2018-19 catalogue and current E-Series parts list, with the E290 from the 2019-20 catalogue.

Fit a New Mechanical Seal at the Same Time

The pumps this impeller fits use the 3/4" Type 6 mechanical seal, part PS3868. Earlier Astralpool catalogues list the same seal as 75508.

The two seal faces separate when the impeller is removed from the motor shaft, and a disturbed seal can leak under the pump once it is back in service. We recommend fitting a new seal every time the impeller is changed.

Symptoms of a Failed or Worn Impeller

• The motor runs normally but flow and filter pressure are down
• Noise or humming from the pump. Astralpool lists the impeller as a possible cause, along with the bearings, mechanical seal, capacitor and motor
• The pump will not run because debris is jammed in the impeller. Astralpool notes that a damaged hair and lint basket can let debris through to the impeller
• Vanes worn, chipped or cracked

If the impeller is jammed, check whether it can be freed before replacing it. Astralpool treats debris jammed in the impeller as general maintenance rather than a warranty fault, and warns that running a pump dry for any length of time causes severe damage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it fit the E170C?
Yes. Astralpool's current E-Series parts list shows 40060M for the E170C.

Does it fit the E140?
It is sold as an E140 / E170 impeller, but Astralpool's E-Series parts lists give the E140 its own impeller, 40060L. If you have an E140, send us photos of the pump label and old impeller before ordering.

Will it fit an E230?
No. Astralpool's parts lists give 40060K for the E230.

Do I need a new mechanical seal when I replace the impeller?
We recommend it. The seal faces separate when the impeller comes off, and a disturbed seal can leak once the pump is back in service. These pumps use the 3/4" Type 6 Mechanical Seal, part PS3868.

Is this a genuine Astralpool part?
Yes. We are an authorised Astralpool and Fluidra dealer and warranty agent, and this is the genuine 40060M impeller.
