Astral Pool Viron eQuilibrium, RolaChem RC1/RC9 Acid Squeeze Tube 520112 - Genuine Chlorinator Spare Part

Rola Chem Acid Squeeze Tube – Genuine (520112 / SP520112)

Replace the acid squeeze tube in your Viron eQuilibrium or RolaChem RC1/RC9 chlorinator with this genuine Astral Pool replacement. The squeeze tube is the heart of the peristaltic dosing pump — it is compressed by rollers to push acid through the system in precise, controlled doses. Over time the neoprene tube fatigues, cracks, or loses elasticity, causing inconsistent dosing or complete dosing failure. Replacing the squeeze tube restores accurate, reliable acid delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my acid squeeze tube needs replacing?

Replace the squeeze tube if you notice inconsistent acid dosing, the doser running but no acid being delivered, visible cracking or deformation of the tube, or if the tube has hardened and lost its flexibility.

How does a peristaltic dosing pump work?

A peristaltic pump uses rollers to compress a flexible tube in sequence, creating a pumping action that moves liquid through the tube without the liquid contacting any pump components. This makes it ideal for corrosive chemicals like hydrochloric acid, as only the tube itself is exposed to the chemical.

Is this a genuine Astral Pool part?

Yes — 520112 (SP520112) is a genuine OEM Astral Pool replacement squeeze tube, not an aftermarket substitute. Using a genuine part ensures correct dimensions and material compatibility with your doser.

How often should the squeeze tube be replaced?

Replacement frequency depends on dosing volume and chemical concentration, but as a general guide inspect the tube annually and replace if any cracking, hardening, or dosing inconsistency is observed. High-use systems may require more frequent replacement.
