Paramount MVFUSE Retro with Ring Stop | 004-670-2000-00
The Paramount MVFUSE Retro with Ring Stop is a Safety Vacuum Release System, or SVRS, designed for retrofit installation in a compatible Paramount in-deck debris canister. It helps relieve a dangerous high-vacuum condition by opening and introducing air into the suction system when the device is triggered.
The included ring stop allows the MVFUSE assembly to be installed in compatible existing debris-canister applications that require the retrofit configuration. This is a pool safety component and must be installed, adjusted and tested according to Paramount instructions.

Professional Installation and Testing Required
The MVFUSE is a pool safety device. It must be installed in accordance with Paramount's written instructions and all applicable federal, state, local and swimming-pool industry safety codes.
After installation, the device and suction system must be properly adjusted and tested by simulating a qualifying blockage event. Paramount specifies repeated operational testing to verify that the MVFUSE remains closed during normal operation and opens to relieve suction when required.
Do not remove, bypass, modify, tamper with or arbitrarily change the setting of an installed MVFUSE. Improper installation or adjustment can prevent the device from operating as intended.
Compatibility and Fitment Guidance
Confirm the complete manufacturer part number before identifying this component. Paramount part 004-670-2000-00 is the MVFUSE retrofit assembly with ring stop for compatible Paramount in-deck debris-canister applications.
This listing is not for a standard electrical fuse, fuse holder, empty debris canister, deck lid, deck ring, collection basket or replacement O-ring. Those are separate components unless specifically identified by their individual Paramount part numbers.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Paramount 004-670-2000-00 still available?
No. This exact Paramount MVFUSE retrofit part has been discontinued and is no longer available through Aqua Terra Backyard. This page remains online for identification and reference.
Is this an electrical fuse or fuse canister?
No. Despite the MVFUSE name, this is not an electrical fuse or an electrical fuse enclosure. It is a Safety Vacuum Release System designed for a pool suction application.
What does an MVFUSE do?
The MVFUSE is designed to react to a qualifying high-vacuum condition. When triggered, it opens and introduces air into the suction system to help release the vacuum.
Does this part include the entire in-deck debris canister?
No. Part 004-670-2000-00 identifies the MVFUSE retrofit assembly with ring stop. The complete buried debris canister body, deck ring, deck lid, debris basket and other service parts are separately identified components.
What is the ring stop used for?
The ring stop provides the required support and seating position for the MVFUSE assembly when retrofitting a compatible Paramount in-deck debris canister.
Does the MVFUSE require electrical wiring?
No. The MVFUSE is not wired to electrical power or pool automation. It functions as a mechanical and magnetic vacuum-release safety device within the suction system.
Can a homeowner install or adjust the MVFUSE?
Installation, adjustment and testing should be completed by a qualified pool professional familiar with suction-outlet safety, hydraulic systems and Paramount's installation requirements.
Does an MVFUSE replace a compliant drain cover?
No. An SVRS is one component of a properly designed suction-safety system. It does not eliminate the need for correctly installed, intact and compliant suction-outlet covers or other required safety measures.
What happens after the MVFUSE is triggered?
The circulation pump must be shut off and the cause of the high-vacuum condition must be identified and cleared. The MVFUSE is then removed, manually reset, reinstalled and functionally verified before normal operation resumes.
