Polaris 9-100-7003 Feed Pipe / Timer Blank Assembly (White) – For Polaris Vac-Sweep 380
The Polaris 9-100-7003 is a replacement feed pipe / timer blank assembly for the Polaris Vac-Sweep 380 pressure-side pool cleaner. This is the rigid top feed-pipe component where the cleaner’s feed hose connects, helping deliver pressurized water into the cleaner for proper propulsion and cleaning performance.
Key Features
- Part Number: 9-100-7003
- Part Type: Feed pipe / timer blank assembly
- Color: White
- Cleaner Compatibility: Polaris Vac-Sweep 380 (verify by your cleaner parts diagram)
- Function: Connects the feed hose to the cleaner and routes pressurized water into the cleaner body
- Includes: O-ring seal for the feed pipe-to-body connection (commonly included)
Common Reasons to Replace
- Feed pipe is cracked or leaking (cleaner feels weak or movement is inconsistent)
- Hose connection area is worn or won’t seal tightly
- Broken ballast-float stem/mount on the feed pipe assembly
- O-ring area is worn and won’t seal properly (air/water leakage at the top assembly)
Installation Notes
- Turn off the booster pump before servicing the cleaner.
- Remove the top assembly as needed to access and swap the feed pipe/timer blank assembly.
- Inspect the O-ring and sealing surface; replace the O-ring if it is flattened, cracked, or swollen.
- After installation, confirm the hose connection is secure and there are no leaks when running.

Installation & Maintenance Tips
- Keep the wall fitting screen/filter clean—restricted flow can mimic feed pipe problems by starving the cleaner of pressure.
- If the hose connection leaks, inspect the hose nut threads and the hose end; sun-damaged hose ends can prevent a proper seal.
- Replace worn O-rings proactively—small leaks at the top assembly can reduce cleaner thrust and coverage.
- Rinse the cleaner after heavy debris events to reduce grit wear on moving and sealing surfaces.
