With 200 square feet of media, it efficiently filters a high volume of water, while the durable fiberglass-reinforced polypropylene tank ensures long-term strength and resistance to pool chemical exposure. The convenient coreless cartridge design allows you to service the filter without backwashing—just rinse and reinstall. Built-in features like 2″ plumbing ports, manual and internal air relief, and safety lock-ring lid mean the filter is engineered for performance and reliability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCheck your pump’s actual flow and keep it within the filter’s recommended range (\u0026lt;≈200 GPM) to avoid overloading. Provide ample vertical clearance above the filter lid to remove cartridges easily, and inspect the lid O-ring during each cleaning interval. Rinse cartridges when system pressure climbs ~10 psi above the initial clean reading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation Tips\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHigh-level safety\/compatibility notes only: Turn off the pump power and relieve system pressure before servicing. Ensure the filter base is level and rated for the tank, plus water and cartridge weight. Confirm the plumbing ports match 2″ connections and that the lid O-ring is in good condition and properly seated. Use only genuine replacement cartridges. Do not exceed 50 psi operating pressure and a max water temperature of 104°F (40°C).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cavanaugh Pool, Spa \u0026 Patio, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62589890396531,"sku":"PAC-05-0090","price":1145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0983\/2464\/4211\/files\/EC-160318-1_11c459d7-8a45-49a0-8e25-7880ff5c7df4.jpg?v=1772563795","url":"https:\/\/shop.cavanaughpool.com\/products\/pentair-clean-clear-cartridge-filter-200-ec-160318","provider":"Cavanaugh Pool, Spa \u0026 Patio, Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
