Vu-Flow Rusco Element for 1-1/2″ Filter 250 Mesh

Description

The durable polyester mesh material of this element is chemical and bacterial resistant which makes it the perfect filter for lake and well-water.

This is a genuine OEM replacement filter element in 250 mesh for use in the following cold water filter systems:

• 1-1/2″ Vu-Flow Screen Filter systems
• 1-1/2″ and 1″ Rusco Spin Down Filter systems

This element has a round base with 4 protruding nubs.  It is not for use with Sand Separator or Sediment Trapper systems, for which the element has a flared type base with a stem.

Please note!  This element measures  8-1/8″ x 1-5/8″ and is used in a 1-1/2″ filter system.  How do you know what size filter system you have?  T-style filter systems are identified by the port size and not by the diameter or length of the filter element.  A 1-1/2″ system indicates that the top inlet/outlet installation port (the “tee”) is 1-1/2″ PVC.

Looking for a different mesh size or perhaps one in stainless steel?  Browse our store for a variety of other options available, including elements for Sand Separator and Sediment Trapper systems.

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:
