Product details

Part 5208 is the filter safety catch, the small sprung latch that holds the microfilter holder shut across SEBO's AUTOMATIC X series and ESSENTIAL G series uprights. It is drawn at position 25 in the AUTOMATIC X7 X8 diagram and at position 32 in the ESSENTIAL G4 G5 diagram, where it is listed as the complete catch.

The catch is what stops the filter compartment easing open under vibration. Once the latch is broken or its tab has snapped off, the holder sits proud of its seat, air finds a way around the media rather than through it, and fine dust ends up past the filter and into the motor's air. The give-away is a filter door that pops open mid-clean, or one that has to be held shut while the machine runs. A new catch brings back positive closure and takes only a few minutes to fit.

  • Part number: 5208
  • Function: latches the microfilter holder closed
  • Diagram positions: 25 on AUTOMATIC X7 X8, 32 on ESSENTIAL G4 G5
  • Fits: SEBO AUTOMATIC X1, AUTOMATIC X2, AUTOMATIC X4, AUTOMATIC X4 Boost, AUTOMATIC X5, AUTOMATIC X7 Premium, AUTOMATIC X7 Pet and AUTOMATIC X8, plus ESSENTIAL G1, ESSENTIAL G2, ESSENTIAL G4 and ESSENTIAL G5
  • Related part numbers: 5210 return spring, 1073 clamp for the filter safety catch, 5091 safety catch spring, 5036AM pre-motor microfilter, 5812ER pre-motor HEPA microfilter

If the holder has been springing open rather than failing to latch, change the return spring, 5210, at the same time. The two work as a pair and a new catch will not hold against a tired spring.
