Pure Water Flow Rate Test Data

The supplied graph presents 10-inch cartridge pressure-drop performance. At the same flow, estimate the pressure drop for 20, 30 and 40-inch cartridges by dividing the 10-inch value by 2, 3 and 4 respectively.

Pressure Drop Trend for 1, 5, 10, 20 and 50 µm

Swimming Pool Filter Cartridge FAQ

Common questions before selecting a pool or spa replacement cartridge.

What micron ratings are available?

The supplied specification lists 1, 5, 10, 20 and 50 µm.

What measurements are required?

Measure overall height, outside diameter, top-hole diameter and type, bottom-hole diameter and type. Photos of both ends are strongly recommended.

Can the cartridge be washed and reused?

Yes. The PET pleated media is designed to be washable. Cleaning frequency depends on debris load and pressure increase.

Can you replace Unicel, Pleatco or Filbur cartridges?

Cross-reference models are available, but every order should be confirmed by measurements and end-cap geometry rather than model number alone.

What information is needed for a quote?

Provide the model reference, height, OD, top and bottom hole details, micron rating, operating flow, water temperature, quantity and photos.
