Like some reviews have mentioned - I thought I was ordering the old IC40 version as indicated in the desertcart posting, but I was sent the new model, Intellichlor Plus, instead. I had read some bad reviews about the new model. DO NOT believe them. I just received the new model and I'm so glad! (April, 2026) It works perfectly. It connected in the exact same place as my old, failed IC40, no modifications needed, just connect it, plug in the power/automation cord, and that's it! Works excellent, generating more chlorine than my original unit ever did. My Intellitouch automation mobile app recognizes and fully controls the device immediately. No special setup required. It is somewhat LARGER than the old unit, but connections are identical. It seems heavier and more solidly built than the old model. It arrived brand new in unopened Pentair packaging. Yes, it's totally too expensive, but if you have Intellitouch and an all-Pentair system, it's WORTH it. My only complaint is the new unit's internal salt-level measuring accuracy seems to be off...indicating about 800 ppm more than what I'm actually measuring in the water using a Taylor K-1766 Sodium Chloride test kit (also purchased on desertcart). But seems consistent, so no big deal. I'll always know that minor conversion, and verify anyway with my more-accurate Tayler test. Get the new model! Review: IC40 Upgrade For My Salt Water Pool - I actually ordered the IC40 on accident, I had a IC20 which I originally was going to replace after a 4 year life which was within the stated 3 - 5 year life span. When I received the IC40 I did a bit of research and decided to keep it as the larger capacity could extend its life into the 8 - 10 year span. It was an easy swap as the piping and power supply accommodated the IC40 without any changes necessary. The IC40 has several additional features that make it an improvement over what I had. I would say this was a lucky mistake on my part that turned into a better option for my pool. ## Features - For pools up to 40,000 gallons - LED indicators and display on cell - Push-button operation and easy-to-view displays enable fast checking of salt level, system status and chlorine output - 2" union inlet and outlet connections for fast and easy cell replacement - 15' cable, UL approved ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Brand | Pentair | | Item Form | Device | | Item Weight | 8.4 pounds | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product Benefits | An alternative to buying, handling and storing chlorine | | UPC | 789610109289 788379887537 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Pentair - **Item Form:** Device - **Item Weight:** 8.4 pounds - **Product Benefits:** An alternative to buying, handling and storing chlorine - **UPC:** 789610109289 788379887537 ## Images ![Pentair EC-520555 IC40 IntelliChlor Salt Chlorine Generator - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51hp4DtBS+L.jpg) ![Pentair EC-520555 IC40 IntelliChlor Salt Chlorine Generator - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/5137Jza3Q8L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ LOVE the new Model! *by J***O on April 25, 2026* I hope this review is helpful!

New version is being marketed as old known product. *by R***H on June 27, 2026* It’s not the same product. Don’t let all the photos fool you it’s the plus model that has multiple issues. It still has all the reviews of the old model that works but that is not longer available and the plus is a different size along with known defects. I got a defective model that starts producing chlorine for 30 minutes then turns off. I have tried every level of flow and it needs more flow than the previous model so keep that in mind for energy bills. It’s not the same size. Yes it’s the same length but if you have pipes close together it may not fit. I had to rework lots of pvc in a tight spot to allow it to have extra clearance on the sides. It recalculates often and then turns off. It will not tell you why. Salt is good. Flow is good. No chlorine. Slowly moving away from pentair as a whole pool system provider as each iteration seems to be more finicky and less reliable than the last. ## Frequently Bought Together - Pentair IC40 EC-520555 IntelliChlor Replacement Salt Cell Chlorine Generator - Captain O-Ring – Replacement 521147 Gasket O-Rings for Pentair IntelliChlor IC15 IC20 IC40 IC60 and iChlor Salt Chlorine Generators (10 Pack) - AR-PRO 520670 The Exact Acid Washing Kit Replacement | Compatible with All Pentair Intellichlor Salt Chlorinator Models| Made of Premium, Heavy Duty Plastic - Improving the Parts Lifespan by 50% --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/58963484-pentair-ec-520555-ic40-intellichlor-salt-chlorine-generator](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/58963484-pentair-ec-520555-ic40-intellichlor-salt-chlorine-generator) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-08-16*
