Product details
The Raypak 017960F is the replacement Protek Shield module for Raypak pool heaters. It is the genuine Raypak part.
What it does
Pool water attacks metal, and salt pools attack it faster. The Protek Shield is sacrificial: it erodes over the season so the heater does not. Seeing the shield worn down when you pull it is the sign it has been protecting the heat exchanger and other wetted parts.
Replace it every year
Raypak recommends annual replacement. The module is compact and swaps out in a few minutes, so it belongs on the same spring checklist as cleaning the filter. It is designed for both chlorinated and saltwater pools.
Before you order
This is the replacement module for heaters that already have the Protek Shield installed. If your heater does not have one yet, you need the adapter retrofit kit instead.

Questions and answers
What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.
What does the Protek Shield do?
It is sacrificial corrosion protection for the heater. The shield erodes over time instead of the heater components, so a worn shield means it has been working.
How often should I replace it?
Raypak recommends replacing the module once a year.
Is it only for salt pools?
No. It is designed for both chlorinated and saltwater pools, though salt pools are where corrosion protection matters most.
Does this fit my heater?
It fits Raypak heaters that already have the Protek Shield system. Heaters without one need the Protek Shield adapter retrofit kit, part 017960F is the replacement module only.
