The Paramount 004-302-4408-00 (UPC: 004302440800) is the official OEM 6-Port Water Valve Gear Module designed for Paramount residential in-floor pool cleaning systems. It sits between the valve's top dome and base, utilizing the hydraulic pressure from your pool pump to automatically cycle and distribute water to different zones of cleaning heads without needing electricity.
System Compatibility & Cross-References
This module is a universal drop-in replacement for a wide variety of Paramount systems and legacy part numbers:
- Compatible Systems: Paramount PCC 2000, Pool Valet, PV3, Cyclean, Vanquish, and Vantage systems.
- Interchangeable Part Numbers: Directly replaces older legacy part numbers 4-009-3189, 40093189, and 004-009-3189.
- Valve Base Compatibility: Fits standard Paramount 6-port valve bases, including 2" bases (005-302-4032-03) and 1.5" bases (005-302-4030-03).
Signs You Need a Replacement
The gear module is factory-assembled and sealed. Because individual gears or internal pistons cannot be serviced separately, the entire module must be replaced if it fails. Look for these common symptoms:
- The valve gets stuck on a single cleaning zone, causing only one set of floor heads to stay up.
-
Multiple zones are active at once, meaning the internal cam plate isn't sealing or sealing correctly, dropping the water pressure across the heads.
Step-by-Step InstallationReplacing the module is a straightforward DIY task that requires no special tools: [1]
- Turn off the pool pump entirely.
- Loosen and remove the metal band clamp holding the valve assembly together.
- Pull the top dome cover straight off the water valve base.
- Grab the old gear module and pull it straight up and out of the base.
- Insert the new module back into the valve base (it is omnidirectional and will seat correctly in any position).
- Clean, inspect, and lubricate the new valve shell O-ring before nesting it in place.
- Reinstall the dome cover and secure it tightly with the band clamp.
