Booster Pump (LA01N)
The Pentair LA01N Booster Pump is required for operation of the Pentair Letro Legend, and Racer. This unit is equipped with a 360° adjustable volute, high effiency ¾ HP motor, pump stand, and installation kit. The pump is not self-priming and should only be used when the main circulation pump is running.
Back-Up Valves (E10)
The Pentair Letro legend and Letro Legend II models use a back-up valve item number E10. The Racer has an internal back-up valve. The back-up valve will open every 2-3 minutes and pull the cleaner backwards for approximately 30 seconds. This action allows the cleaner to avoid tight places and obstacles. It also increases the random pattern of cleaning.
Sweep Hoses (EB5L, 360244)
The Pentair models have a tail sweep. The tail sweep is designed to gently sweep, scrub, and agitate the debris on the bottom of the pool. The Letro Legend and Letro Legend II use the EB5L sweep hose. The Racer uses the 360244 sweep hose.
