Vu-Flow Rusco 3/4″ & 1″ 140 Mesh Stainless Element for 3/4″ & 1″ Trapper Filter

Description

This is a genuine 3/4″ and 1″ Vu-Flow and Rusco OEM replacement filter media element in 140 mesh stainless steel.

Stainless steel mesh is a durable material, perfect for filtering cold water systems and hot water applications using higher water temperatures, or where coarser particles are present.

Key Features:

• High temperature resistance
• High durability and versatility
• Washable and reusable
• Anti-corrosive properties
• Great for livestock and industrial uses

This element is compatible with the following cold and hot water filter systems:

• 3/4″ and 1″ Vu-Flow Sand Separator Filter systems
• 3/4″ and 1″ Rusco Sediment Trapper Filter systems

Both the 3/4″ and 1″ systems use this replacement element, which measures 5-1/8″ x 1-1/8″ and has a smooth circular base with 2 notches.  It is not for use with Vu-Flow Screen Filter or Rusco Spin Down systems, for which the element has a base with 4 protruding nubs.

How do you know what size filter system you have?  A 3/4″ or 1″ system means that the top inlet/outlet ports of the filter system “tee” are 3/4″ or 1″ PVC.

This is an original Vu-Flow and Rusco OEM product, which they then brand after manufacture as either Vu-Flow or Rusco for distribution.  This is supplied to us directly from their shared headquarters.

Which size mesh is best for your use?  In general, use the coarsest screen deemed necessary to filter the material you want removed. This will result in longer runs between blow-downs.  The manufacturer’s recommendations are provided in the chart below:
