The Autotrol 1033444 Internal Turbine Wheel is a precision OEM replacement component engineered to restore flow metering accuracy in Autotrol Performa series control valves. This turbine assembly measures water throughput to trigger regeneration cycles based on actual usage, ensuring your softener or filter valve operates on demand rather than on a fixed timer.

COMPATIBILITY & APPLICATIONS
Valve Systems & Replacement Use
This turbine wheel is designed exclusively for Autotrol Performa valve bodies and is a common wear component in residential and light commercial water treatment systems. Over time, turbine wheels can accumulate sediment, mineral scale, or wear from continuous rotation, leading to inaccurate metering or failure to initiate regeneration cycles. The 1033444 restores factory performance in softener and filter control valves, particularly in systems that have experienced erratic cycling, skipped regenerations, or flow sensor errors. Compatible with Performa 263, 268, and 278 valve series when equipped with metered control heads.
💧 If your valve is skipping regenerations or cycling too frequently, inspect the turbine wheel for calcium buildup or physical wear before replacing the entire valve head—this single component often resolves metering issues at a fraction of the cost.
