Description

The Fluval FX4 Motor Unit is the genuine replacement motor unit for the FX4 High Performance Filter — the part to fit when a filter has stopped rather than merely slowed.

Key Features

  • Made for the FX4 High Performance Filter
  • A complete motor unit rather than a rebuild, which is the right answer when the motor itself has failed
  • Genuine part, so it seats correctly and the seal faces match
  • Made by Fluval, the aquatics brand of Rolf C. Hagen, which has been building aquarium filters since 1975

Fitting It

  • Unplug anything electrical before putting your hands in the tank
  • Disconnect the hoses and take the unit to a sink rather than working over the tank
  • Check the old part against the new one before fitting. If they differ, stop and check the model number
  • A smear of silicone lubricant on an O-ring before reassembly makes the next service much easier and helps the seal sit properly
  • Prime the filter and watch the first few minutes of running for leaks before you walk away

Good To Know

  • This is an expensive part. Before ordering, rule out the cheap causes: a blocked strainer, a clogged foam, a fouled impeller or a perished seal ring
  • A motor that hums but does not move water usually has a seized or broken impeller, which is a much cheaper part
  • A motor that is completely dead, or that trips the electrics, is the case for this part
  • A genuine Fluval spare part. Check the model number against your unit before ordering — Fluval part numbers look alike and do not cross over between series
  • Fluval sells these individually so a filter can be repaired rather than replaced, which is usually the cheaper and greener option
  • Keeping a spare impeller and O-ring in the cupboard saves a tank when something fails on a weekend
