Product details
The Pentair R172276 is a genuine replacement flow meter, cataloged with the Pentair Rainbow automatic feeder parts for the 300 and 29X models.
What it does
A feeder flow meter gives a visible reading of the water passing through the unit, which is what lets you set and confirm the feed rate rather than guessing at it. A meter that has clouded over, stuck, or cracked leaves the feeder running blind.
Before you order
Published detail on this part is thin beyond the part number itself. Match R172276 against the meter on your feeder, or against the parts listing for your exact model, before ordering.
