Guard your AquaStar Pipeline pump against debris damage with the AP1009 OEM replacement strainer basket. This bucket-style basket is purpose-made for Pipeline smart pump models, including the PLP150S and PLP300S, and catches leaves, twigs, and other large particles before they reach the impeller.

Engineered for a precise drop-in fit, the AP1009 seats flush inside the strainer housing and lines up perfectly with the lid assembly. Its heavy-wall, chemically resistant construction stands up to season after season of chlorinated water and regular handling. Cleaning takes seconds: lift the basket by its built-in handle, rinse away trapped material, and slide it back into place to restore full water flow and pump circulation.

With the AP1009 in place, your Pipeline pump benefits from consistent pre-filtration that reduces cavitation risk, shields internal components from wear, and simplifies your overall maintenance routine, keeping the entire system operating at its best.
