Salt Cell Related
The PPC numbers are not random. They identify different AutoPilot replacement cell sizes and capacities. In general, as the PPC number goes up, the chlorine production capacity and supported pool size go up as well.
That means choosing the right cell is not just about matching the number you see online. It is about matching the cell to your system and pool size.
The PPC1 is one of the most common AutoPilot replacement cells for smaller systems. AutoPilot lists it as compatible with the Pool Pilot Digital Nano, Digital, 75003, and Soft Touch. The rated capacity depends on the control system. With the Digital Nano, it is rated for pools up to 28,000 gallons. With the Digital, 75003, or Soft Touch, it is rated for pools up to 40,000 gallons.
This is important because PPC1 can show up in different real-world installations depending on the controller. If you are replacing a PPC1, make sure you are checking both your existing cell model and the specific AutoPilot control system you have.
The PPC2 is a more specific cell in the lineup. AutoPilot lists it as compatible with Pool Pilot Nano+ only, and rates it for pools up to 32,000 gallons.
That controller-specific compatibility is worth paying attention to. PPC2 is not just a slightly different size. It is tied to a particular system family, so customers should be careful not to assume it is interchangeable with every other AutoPilot setup.
The PPC3 is one of the most important and widely used cells in the lineup. AutoPilot rates it for pools up to 50,000 gallons and lists it for use with the Pool Pilot Digital, 75003, and Soft Touch.
For many residential pool owners, PPC3 is the model they end up replacing. It sits in a practical range for a large number of in-ground pool setups and is often the cell people search for when replacing older AutoPilot systems that are still working well overall but need a fresh chlorine-producing cell.
The safest way to choose the correct AutoPilot replacement cell is to work through these steps in order:
Check the exact model number on your existing cell
Check your AutoPilot control system model
Confirm the official pool size rating for that cell
Use the official old-to-current conversion chart if your part number is older
Replace the cell cord along with the cell
If you are uncertain, it is better to verify before ordering than to guess based on appearance alone. Several PPC cells look similar at a glance, but the compatibility and intended application are not identical across the line.
