Product details

This is the Pentair 79116900, the bulb assembly o-ring used on the AquaLuminator, the CAL Color AquaLuminator and the Quasar pool lights. It is the genuine Pentair part.

What it seals

The o-ring sits at the bulb assembly and is the barrier between pool water and the lamp. It spends its life compressed, warm and submerged, and rubber under those conditions gradually hardens and takes the shape of the groove it sits in. Once that happens it no longer springs back to seal, and the fixture floods.

When to change it

Change the o-ring any time the light is opened, especially when the bulb is replaced. Wipe the groove clean, fit the new ring with a thin film of silicone lubricant made for pool o-rings, and keep petroleum based grease well away from it. It is a small part that protects an expensive fixture.

Questions and answers

What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.

Which lights does this o-ring fit?
The Pentair AquaLuminator, the CAL Color AquaLuminator and the Quasar.
Do I need a new o-ring when I change the bulb?
It is strongly recommended. An o-ring that has been compressed and heated for years will not reseal reliably, and a leaking seal floods the fixture.
Should I grease it?
Use a thin film of silicone lubricant made for pool o-rings. Petroleum based grease attacks the rubber.
Is it a genuine Pentair part?
Yes. It is Pentair part number 79116900.
