This replacement salt cell for the Breeze 540 is 100% compatible with original systems (no software/firmware issues). The Breeze 540 cell has the same length, threading, and cable connection for direct replacement. Also compatible with older SG3000 systems

To get the most life out of your salt cell and to keep your pool running without unexpected interruptions, make sure it is sized correctly, maintain correct water balance, and be sure and inspect your cell at least every 3 months for leaks, debris, and calcium scale. Be sure to follow instructions in the product manual and clean the cell as often as the system indicates.

Great price, fast shipping. New salt cell works perfect and is a genuine OEM product. I like the updated design over the original model.

clorinator
These things are expensive and what fails is the seal around the electrode. Just keep the electrode clean they'll operate for years The new one work great.

Fair price, good service, working well
After the old cell wore out, I checked around for a new one in late May (2020) Ordered from Discount Salt Pool: service was prompt and product has worked well to date (one month). Pricing was fair when comparing to other sites. I would recommend purchasing this product and Discount Salt Pool as a provider.

Questions From Customers

Q: Can you use a 540 salt cell on a 320 power source?

Asked by: Mike - 3/31/2020
A: Yes, bigger is better so when a cell needs to be replaced its a good opportunity to upgrade.

Q: I currently have a Breeze 540 and I need to replace the cell. Can I upgrade the Cell to a 760 without changing the rest of the system?

Asked by: Scott - 6/3/2020
A: No, unfortunately a 760 model requires a control unit with a larger transformer inside.

Q: Only 2 plates that are connected to each other on my SGS Breeze 540 show calcium build-up and need to be manually cleaned frequently as if they no longer self-clean. The other 3 plates that are connected to each other appear non-functional because I'm not generating enough chlorine with only 40% functionality. Is this a sign of a bad cell, or is it a controller issue?

Asked by: Ron - 4/21/2021
A: If you are not getting a warning light or blinking power LED light on your control box, I would pretty safely assume the system is working normally. Based on my experience, it is common to see calcium on alternating sets of plates at times, and that doesn't indicate whether a system is or is not generating.

Asked by: Michael - 2/28/2022

Asked by: Barrie - 5/25/2022
A: The flashing power light typically comes on for cold water and for electrical/circuitry related issues, so that is certainly possible.

Q: My pool is approximately 17,800 gallons. Will a 3 cell breeze salt cell be enough to take care of chlorinating my pool?

Asked by: Kenny Bean - 9/13/2020
A: If you currently have a Breeze 540, I would not put a 320 cell on your pool - that's a pretty big downgrade and it would put you right at its max capacity. More power is better - your salt system will work less hard to keep the pool clean, last longer, and you can turn it up higher to knock out problems when you eventually need it.

Asked by: David - 12/3/2021
A: David, since 2020 availability has been very volatile in the pool equipment industry. If you sign up for this item's waiting list, you'll automatically be notified if it comes back in stock.
