Polaris Genuine OEM Filter Canister Support Lid$5499
Quick overview
- Genuine Polaris part The factory R0517700 support lid, not an aftermarket copy.
- Fits the 9300 family Used on the Polaris 9300, 9300xi and 9400 robotic cleaners.
- Rubber gasket on the bottom A thick gasket is molded into the underside so the lid seats against the canister.
- Now supplied as R0865100 Polaris has moved the part to number R0865100 and the color may vary from the original.
- Sealing matters Debris that gets past a distorted or gasketless lid goes straight through instead of into the canister.
- Handled every cycle The lid comes off at every canister empty, so cracks and a flattened gasket are normal wear.

Product details
The Polaris R0517700 is the genuine filter canister support lid for the 9300, 9300xi and 9400 robotic pool cleaners. A thick rubber gasket is fitted to the underside of the lid.
What the lid does
The support lid closes the top of the filter canister and its gasket makes the seal between the two. That seal is what forces the water the cleaner pulls in to pass through the filter media. If the lid is cracked, warped or missing its gasket, part of the flow bypasses the media and the debris it was carrying goes back into the pool.
Why it wears
The lid is removed and refitted every time the canister is emptied, which on a working cleaner is most days in season. Repeated handling, sunlight on the deck and chlorinated water all take their toll: the plastic gets brittle around the tabs and the gasket takes a set and stops sealing.
The part number change
Polaris now supplies this lid as R0865100. It replaces R0517700 directly, and the only difference to expect is color, which may not match the lid coming off the cleaner.
